Our expert's notes

An original production cel with wax overlay and hand-painted background featuring Peter Rabbit from the episode "The Tale of Peter Rabbit and Benjamin Bunny" from the animated series The World of Peter Rabbit and Friends.

The World of Peter Rabbit and Friends series was produced by TVC London, known for its painterly craftsmanship and close visual fidelity to Beatrix Potter's beloved illustrations. Peter is depicted here, arms outstretched and mid-sentence, rendered with clean linework and subtle, characterful detail. The cel features the studio's distinctive wax overlay technique, which adds soft texture and warmth to the painted figure, mimicking the effect of fur, adding texture to his signature jacket, and enhancing the sense of depth on screen.

While not a key or matching setup, the cel has been carefully paired with a hand-painted production background from the same feature, creating a visually rich composition that captures the atmosphere and contents of Mr. McGregor's basket. Together, the elements offer a thoughtfully composed window into the artistry of hand-painted television animation. Marked "P.12A" and "BG 6/19", respectively, this setup is a delightful standalone display and a collector's insight into the traditional processes behind one of Britain's most beloved animated adaptations. Dimensions (cel on background): 35.75 cm x 50.5 cm (14" x 19.75")
