The context

This illustration shows the production imageboard, used during pre-production to direct the artwork of the film AKIRA and features the very first scene of the film, an aerial view of Tokyo showing us, among other things, the skyscraper district, Shinjuku!

Radiant White is a 100% cotton paper with a smooth, velvety surface texture which guarantees archival standards and brilliant colors. Its premium matt inkjet coating meets the highest standards regarding density, color gamut, color graduation and image sharpness. We selected this exclusive paper with our printing partner YPP because it not only yields fantastic results in terms of colour reproduction but also feels very close to the paper of the original artwork.

As seen in the animated film: 

The artist - Toshiharu Mizutani

Mizutani et l'un des paysages présents dans AKIRA, le film d'animation

Toshiharu Mizutani is the artistic director of the animated film AKIRA, and a hugely successful artist in his own right, having created some of the most iconic paintings depicting the film's many landscapes and backgrounds. He has also worked on more than forty films and anime, either as background artist or art director, including the not-to-be-missed Yuri!!! on Ice and Bleach.

AKIRA - The story

AKIRA is a science fiction manga created by Katsuhiro Ôtomo between 1982 and 1990. It tells the story of the adventures of two childhood friends turned enemies drawn into the megalopolis of Neo-Tokyo as they fight for survival. A dramatic story including superpowers, political intrigue, and revolution.

The manga was made into an animated film in 1988 providing the scene for this poster, and proved to be a huge success, and not just in Japan, taking the anime beyond the Japanese borders, contributing to its worldwide popularity.

The poster

This print is published by Galerie Riekeles under licence from Kodansha and in collaboration with the author. It is a high-quality reproduction, as faithful as possible to the original work, accurately rendering down to the smallest detail the breathtaking landscapes and backgrounds that helped make the anime from which they are taken internationally successful.

The care taken with the choice of paper and the printing technique make these posters real collectors' items.
