AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
ONLY ONE IN THE WORLD EXISTS - EDITION 1/1
With this vertical-format artwork, Medsan pays epic homage to the cult universe of Dragon Ball, created by Akira Toriyama, blending it with the aesthetics of Japanese printmaking. A Super Saiyan warrior, with golden hair and a blazing aura, kneels and bears the marks of battle on a devastated battlefield, gazing at the majestic celestial dragon Shenron unfurling across the sky. A scarlet rising sun, suspended cherry blossom petals, and in the foreground the iconic four-star Dragon Ball and Dragon Radar complete the scene. This unique print bears the signature “メドサン” (Medsan) in a cartouche.
The visual power of the composition lies in its ukiyo-e style treatment: a warm, dusky palette, a red sun evoking the flag of the Land of the Rising Sun (hinomaru), and a golden dragon (ryū) rendered in the manner of the sacred serpents of East Asian tradition. The drifting sakura petals introduce the sensitivity of mono no aware, that poignant awareness of impermanence. The manga line meets here the solemn composition of Japanese printmaking.
The impact of the work rests on its dimension that is both epic and elegiac: the exhausted hero, gathered before the wish-granting dragon, embodies sacrifice, hard-won victory and loss. Objects fallen to the ground—the radiant Dragon Ball, the radar—tell the story without a word, while the cherry blossoms remind us of fragility even in absolute power. A contemplative and moving tribute.
An epic, moving and refined piece, ideal for adding a heroic, poetic, and decidedly contemporary touch to a collector’s interior—a favorite among lovers of Japanese culture as well as pop culture.

About the Atelier:
Atelier Joconde is a collective of artists united around a living and plural contemporary creation. Established as a true hub of artistic production, the studio operates both in collaborative creation and individual approaches, depending on projects and works. Atelier Joconde is also a family venture. Le Yack, a contemporary figurative painter, develops a narrative and introspective body of work with cinematic and realistic influences. Alongside him, Medsan, oriented toward pop art painting, explores color, modern iconography and visual culture. Finally, Neo Pablo pursues a more instinctive research, blending abstract art, naive art, and figurative abstraction. Each work is conceived, created, and followed within the studio, with a shared artistic standard and a distinct identity for each artist.
