Walt chez Wallace

It may seem an unusual collaboration, to house an exquisite exhibition illuminating some of the inspirations for Walt Disney's early animated shorts and more recent, internationally successful fairy-tale features, in the basement of one of London's richest and perhaps lesser-known art and artifact galleries, the privately endowed Wallace Collection in Manchester Square, a short walk from newly - if gingerly (post-pandemic)- bustling Oxford Street. But it is certainly a marriage made in curators' heaven.

"INSPIRING WALT DISNEY The Animation of French Decorative Arts" has prompted some rave reviews in arts columns still published in real,hard--copy newspapers and magazines, and should delight visitors young and old (until 16 October 2022 open daily de dix à cinq).
