It’s All in the Details Epcot’s France Painting

Epcot World Showcase France paintingHave you ever seen this scene before as you walk from England to France in Epcot’s World Showcase? I have passed this and taken pictures and have always loved it. This past trip I learned something that a lot of people probalbly know already, but it was a wonderful surprise to me. As I got closer I got another picture close up. With Disney, it’s all in the details.

After I took the close up picture I looked up and right across the river saw the scene in the painting. Without the boat, true, but the detail is really incredible. It makes sense that the artist would have been painting the scene in front of him but to really see it for the first time was very cool.

Hat’s off to the Imagineers! Do you think it will survive Epcot’s new Skyway Station?  Time will tell.

Hello all! I have been going to WDW since 1976 and can't count the number of trips along with some cruises. I love all things Disney, from the parks to the studios to the history of what made the Walt Disney Company what it is...Walt himself.
