DescriptionMark Hilbert: “I like the way Hulett breaks up the space with these vertical lines – and then you have these striking dark silhouettes of the birds. Just the beautiful juxtaposition of these birds in the composition is interesting. His choice of colors is fairly monochromatic, but I think he does a very good job of design here. It’s a beautiful and quite modern design. Hulett was also an important Disney artist who worked on every Disney feature from 1937’s Snow White to 1967’s The Jungle Book.”
