Visitors walk the Strip,
The fourth painting in the Theme Parks & Landmarks Collection to explore Walt Disney World takes a group of futuristic 'visitors' to the Hollywood Studios theme park. Taking a shortcut from the main street of the park to the nearby pond we see what remains of the Gertie The Dinosaur ice cream vendor shuttered and forgotten and based on the 1914 animated film linking the park old Hollywood animation. In the distance we see the visitors returning the iconic Sorcerer's hat - which was removed in 2015. As if they are trying to return a long forgotten magic to the park.
