“Watership Down” Bigwig and Hazel Production Cel (1978) - ID: jun26061

A production cel from the Nepenthe Studios animated cult classic "Watership Down" (1978). Featuring Bigwig and Hazel, the hand-painted cel was created at the studio and used during the animation process. The piece is an actual frame of animation that was photographed and appears in the film. The image is seen at about 38:40 when Hazel is listening into the tunnels at what he believes is the Black Rabbit of Inle. Measuring 10.5”x13” overall, with the character image measuring 7.75”x7.5”, the cel is in very good condition with minor edge and corner wear. The cel is paired with a color printed reproduction background for presentation purposes.
