Description
Vampire Hunter D Original Signed Illustration by Illustrator Yoshitaka Amano (Madhouse, 2000) Marked by his unearthly beauty and exceptionally potent aura, it's D from the illustrious anime films Vampire Hunter D and Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust looking enigmatic in this incredibly rare original illustration by the hand of illustrator and character designer Yoshitaka Amano. In the early 1980s Amano was hired to illustrate the first book in the Vampire Hunter D novel series from which the films were later adapted, as well as the character designs for the first of the two movies. The 2000 sequel film Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust began production in 1997 and was completed with the intention of being one of the first anime movies shown in American theaters, debuting in the States less than 6 months after it's Japan release. Amano is also well known for his design work on the acclaimed video game series Final Fantasy which helped catapult him to the world's highest-earning artist in 1996. This commanding portrait features the mysterious D spanning the page at a monumental 9.25" x 12.5", created in ink and displaying the signature of Amano along the lower edge of the 10.25" x 14" paper sheet. The lot presents minor handling and edge wear and is in Very Good condition.Auction Info
