A lighthearted twist on Rapunzel, the beloved fairy tale from the Brothers Grimm, Tangled brims with thrilling adventure, a distinctive cast of characters, a daring heroine, and, of course, seventy feet of golden hair. Featuring the stunning concept art behind the newest Disney masterpiece, The Art of Tangled also includes a preface by John Lasseter, a foreword by Directors Nathan Greno and Byron Howard, and interviews with the artists, animators, and production team—including Art Director David Goetz—that shed light on the history and artistry of this landmark film.

When I first heard about The Art of Dinsey Tangled (aka Rapnuzel) I thought it was going to be a cute little book about the illustrations. What I had not been expecting was this gorgeous practically encyclopedia of the illustrations and artwork of each character and setting with background commentary to complement it and engage a reader with anticipation. Well in my case it is anticipation, since the movie is coming out soon. Even for people after they have seen the film, this book will be so much fun. It's like the type of things you find in the DVD extras, but this is in a tangible book format that you can just sit and stare at the images. I was enthralled and educated and surprised by things that I learned about the Dinsey industry as well as the history of the legend of Ranpunzel herself. It was also neat that in some cases I liked other artists renditions and not the final copy quite as much. I think that this book would make a great gift for any Disney lover and family to share.
Thanks to Chronicle Books for providing a copy for review.
I love going through this kind of books. This one is beautiful and I honestly think that is the best one I have read so far. I have learn a lot about visual design.
