Remember I was there when no one knew what a cel was, some 30 years ago. I worked in one of the first five galleries in the world specializing in animation art. Of course I feel vindicated that animation art, Disney interpretive art, and film art has become a huge collectible with which most people are familiar. Often it takes a few years for the art to raise consistently in price.

This article is based on a question about Alice. Ariel in The Little Mermaid, though she still has her seashell bra, appears mostly naked when she gets her legs during her transformation scenes. In a way, she is reborn as a human but has now lost the ability to breathe underwater and needs to reach the surface to get air.
Ariel is voiced by Jodi Benson in all official animated appearances and merchandise. She is fourth in the Disney Princess lineup, the first nonhuman princess, and the only princess to become a mother to her own child. Ariel is the seventh-born daughter of King Triton and Queen Athena of an underwater kingdom of merfolk called Atlantica. She marries Prince Eric , whom she rescued from a shipwreck, and together they have a daughter, Melody. The character is based on the title character of Hans Christian Andersen 's fairy tale " The Little Mermaid " but was developed into a different personality for the animated film adaptation. Ariel has received a mixed reception from critics; some publications such as Time criticize her for being too devoted to Eric whereas others, such as Empire , praise the character for her rebellious personality, a departure from previous Disney Princesses' roles. Halle Bailey will portray a live-action version of the character in the upcoming live-action adaptation of the original film.
