Dragon Ball Poster - Journey to the West Costumes (Canvas)

The Chinese Novel that Inspired the Series' Name

Dragon Ball's starting point comes from Journey to the West, the Chinese novel where a monkey king armed with an extensible staff escorts a monk. This 1989 illustration pushes the homage to the limit: red staff, golden headband, turquoise cape, and tiger-skin skirt, the exact attributes of the monkey king.

Behind him, Piccolo observes, and two companions complete the scene in a drawn frame. It's the most erudite poster on the shelf: it will appeal to those who know the source as much as to those who love the drawing.

Why you'll love it

• The nod to the original novel, including the headband and tiger skin
• 4 sizes, from small 21 × 30 cm to large 50 × 70 cm: enough to adorn a desk corner or an entire wall
• Printed on canvas, matte and glare-free — it can be viewed from an angle, unlike a poster under glass
• Delivered without frame or stretcher bar: this makes it affordable, and you remain free to frame it as you wish

From the same universe in our store: Frieza Overlooking Goku and Goku Sitting on the Green Jeep, Chapter 155. All the rest in our Dragon Ball posters.

What is the connection to Journey to the West?
The Monkey King from the novel inspired the character of Goku: same extensible staff, same cloud, same name in Japanese. The illustration adopts his traditional attributes.

Is the frame included?
No, and this is intentional: no passe-partout, no stretcher bars, no framing. The canvas travels flat or rolled, without risk of broken glass, and the price remains that of the poster alone. You can choose your own frame — or simply tack it up as is.

Which size should I choose?
The 21 × 30 cm fits above a desk or in a gallery of small posters. The 50 × 70 cm is the "one poster, one wall" size. In between, the 30 × 42 cm is the most common choice when undecided.

What is the delivery time?
Typically allow 5 to 10 business days, with parcel tracking for France, the European Union, and internationally.
