Art Notes
Who am I? And with whom will I share a lifetime of love? These are two of the great themes of each of our lives; questions we seek to answer in our own life's journey.
In Disney's magical animated classic, Aladdin, based on the folktale "Aladdin, or the Wonderful Lamp" from the collection "One Thousand and One Nights", both Aladdin and Jasmine seek answers to these two great questions. The peasant boy Aladdin pretends to be a prince to win the hand of his beloved Jasmine, and Princess Jasmine pretends to be a peasant to break the confines of her palace home. As they soar above Agrabah and the surrounding kingdom on a magic carpet ride, they discover a "whole new world" of adventure and love, and the realization that we only need "to be ourselves", not someone else, to find "true love" and that wondrous place for you and me.
Thomas Kinkade Studios is proud to present Aladdin with the hope that you too will discover that wondrous place and love for your life.
