Disney Princess "Nouveau Collection" Kindle screensavers.

Do you like Disney? How about art nouveau? If you own an Amazon Kindle and you're looking to add to your custom screensavers, the following images might be right up your alley!

In the spring of 2008, Disney unveiled the "Nouveau Collection," elegant designs inspired by classic art nouveau paintings. Available on journals, trinket boxes, faux stained glass suncatchers, and apparel, this re-imagining of some of Disney's most popular princesses was a welcome change from the typically youth-oriented items sold at the Disney Store... but the series vanished almost as quickly as it appeared.

However, with help from [info]bloss_japanime, who posted high-res pictures of the journal covers, I've put together this delightful collection for use with your Kindle! Each screensaver file is grayscale and 600x800 in size -- click on the preview images for the full-sized pictures.

Guidelines
→ No hotlinking.
→ Please comment when taking a graphic or downloading a mix so I can see what people like!
→ When using icons or other graphics, please credit [info]jesspark or [info]whatzitsgalore.
→ Do not redistribute.
→ Enjoy! :D










If you need help adding (or removing) custom screensavers from your Kindle, this guide tells you everything you need to know.

Cleaning up and formatting these pictures took longer than you might think, so I ask that you don't alter or redistribute them. Thank you!

These are epically beautiful! I wish they used these images on the stuff in the stores! Thank you for sharing! *squee*

You're very welcome! I wish they'd continued this line, too -- I'm still bummed that they never released an Ariel journal! At least I have the trinket box. :)

Those are really pretty! Did they ever come out with a Belle nouveau?

[info]jesspark

The only thing I remember seeing -- and can find evidence of online -- was this shirt, which features Belle along with the other princesses (although you'll notice that Aurora's art is different than what's shown on other merchandise). You'd think Belle would be the first to get art nouveau love, but I guess not. :(

Great work!
I hope they resurect this series at some point - I'm still waiting for a pocahontus or Alice themed one!

[info]jesspark

January 12 2009, 13:05:20 UTC 3 years ago

Ohh, I hope they do, too! I think the Disney Store just needed to market it better. It was so sad to see the women's tops going for, like, three dollars online.

And thank you SO much for posting those high-res journal cover images! Splicing those suckers together isn't too fun -- I had to do the same for the Snow White picture; since I own the trinket box, I did a combo of scan and splice for Ariel -- and I really appreciate you sharing your efforts. :)

These are so gorgeous. I wish I had a Kindle just so I could use them as the screensaver. XD

And, yes, like everyone else said, we need more merchandise with these images!

I won't lie: I've been known to sit and stare at my Kindle for moments on end when one of these images comes up as a screensaver. =) I'd love to have a framed print of the Ariel illustration in color! I think Disney would've made a mint off this series if they'd marketed it--well, at all.

How beautiful! I am favouriting this!

[info]jesspark

May 7 2009, 04:47:43 UTC 3 years ago

Yay! I'm glad everyone seems to enjoy these images; I thought it was a beautiful line and deserved more exposure than it got. :)

Poor Snow, "The Original Princess" >XP
How about something along the lines of "The Fairest Princess?"

[info]jesspark

May 7 2009, 04:45:38 UTC 3 years ago

That would've been a much better choice, I think!

WOW Ive seen the first three but not ariel and jasmine. Ariel looks smoking hot with that come hither look. XD

Thanks for sharing I want more stuff like this ^.^

May 7 2009, 04:45:13 UTC 3 years ago

I know, right? I'm so sad that they discontinued this line! I thought it was perfect: elegant and adult, but still obviously "Disney."

Your screensavers are absolutely gorgeous! I was so happy to find more Kindle screensavers available online.
I have posted a link to them on my blog here:

(at the bottom), I hope that's okay!
Thanks again for making these; they're beautiful!

I'm glad you like them! :) Disney did a great job with this line; I only wish they would've continued it.

There are a ton of awesome screensavers on your site, and I appreciate the link to mine! (I know what you mean about someone needing to take away your Photoshop access, hehe!) One teeny thing, if you get the chance to correct it: it's spelled "Whatzits Galore." ;)

Keep up the great work!

These screensavers make me wish I had a Kindle :p

Would you have copies of the highres colour versions?

[info]jesspark

May 7 2009, 14:58:25 UTC 3 years ago

Other than the link I provided above to the images that [info]bloss_japanime posted and a cobbled-together version of the Ariel trinket box product photo... sadly, no. That's all I have.
