Belle Original and Limited Edition Art

A fictional character and the female protagonist of Walt Disney Pictures' thirtieth animated feature film Beauty and the Beast (1991). She is the fifth member of the Disney Princess line-up. The only daughter of an inventor named Maurice, with whom she lives in a small town in France, Belle, though perceived by her fellow villagers as the most beautiful girl in town, is simultaneously considered "strange" because of her love of reading and non-conformity. She comes to live with the Beast in his castle in order to save her father. During her stay, she comes to recognize the Beast's inner kindness and love him for who he is rather than what he appears to be.

 

Belle was based on the female protagonist of Jeanne-Marie Le Prince de Beaumont's abridged version of the French fairy tale "Beauty and the Beast" by Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve, but was developed into a different, more multidimensional character for the Disney film adaptation. Belle has enjoyed a mostly positive reception, many critics praising her intelligence and bravery, which they consider a departure from previous Disney heroines.
