Hunchback Art
- Thanks to Bill Peckmann, I’ve posted some of Rowland B. Wilson‘s art from his Disney years (mostly The Little Mermaid artwork). Now. Bill has sent me some work from The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
A second posting of this art will be forthcoming; it’s a larger size and will take more comlications in scaning.

Does it get any better than this?
She could have stepped out of Gulliver’s Travels.

The charm in these birds is also ineffably beautiful.

These two (above and below) seem to belong to Hercules.

This final piece didn’t come from The Hunchback’s artwork, but was slipped into Bill’s Package from Rowland. I’ve seen it before, but it’s always fun to see it again.
Many thanks to Bill Peckmann for sharing.

To all of you new fans out there, please pester publishers to do a book collection of Rowland’s work. There’s still alot of his original art that’s out there and like the man says, “You ain’t seen nuttin’ yet!” If we can get a grass roots, ground swell going, who knows what might happen…

These are stellar.
Absolutely wonderful.
Also – the pink demonic characters in the middle (Pain and Panic) are from Hercules, no?
Maybe they were held over.

I think you’re right, Elliot. I’ve moved those two images and have added the Hercules title. Thanks for being so observant.

I have a soft spot for the film as Gerald Scarfe was an obsession of mine when I was younger.

I didn’t know rats could look so charming–and that birds could look so…French!
