Cheshire Cat – A Moment in Time

Cheshire Cat – A Moment in Time Statue | Signed by Peter Mook & Rosanne Robb This premium Cheshire Cat statue from Disney’s Alice in Wonderland was sculpted by Peter Mook and produced by Border Fine Arts under Walt Disney license. Part of the prestigious A Moment in Time collection, it was handcrafted from resin and hand-painted in the United Kingdom. It is a limited edition of 500 pieces worldwide. This particular example carries signatures attributed to sculptor Peter Mook and artist Rosanne Robb on its underside label. Dates back to 2016. The Cheshire Cat — one of the most memorable characters from Disney’s 1951 animated classic Alice in Wonderland, known for his mysterious nature, mischievous personality and extraordinary grin. Here, the character is captured in a wonderfully exaggerated pose, his striped body bending into an almost impossible curve while his oversized head leans forward with an enormous, tooth-filled smile. His bright yellow eyes, raised paw and richly colored pink and purple stripes bring the unpredictable personality of the Cheshire Cat into three-dimensional form. The sculptural composition is particularly striking. The Cheshire Cat’s curved body, oversized head and unusually balanced posture create a sense of movement, while his enormous striped tail adds visual weight to the opposite side. The sculpted tree branch beneath his feet provides a natural foundation without competing with the character. Subtle changes in the painted pink and violet tones emphasize the rounded forms, and the carefully defined facial features preserve the distinctive appearance of Disney’s original animation. The signatures attributed to Peter Mook and Rosanne Robb connect this sculpture directly to its original design and the hand-painted craftsmanship of Border Fine Arts. Although the Cheshire Cat was announced as a limited edition of 500 pieces worldwide, the actual production run is believed to have been considerably smaller, although the final number remains unconfirmed. Combined with its expressive sculptural design, distinctive character presence and signed presentation, this makes the Cheshire Cat a particularly interesting piece for collectors of Alice in Wonderland, Border Fine Arts and Disney’s A Moment in Time series.
