Description
The Queen of the Depths of Time – Queen Millennia (新竹取物語 1000年女王) Queen Millennia Hand-painted celluloid sheet used in the production of the anime The Queen of the Ancient World – Queen Millennia, based on the work of Leiji Matsumoto (松本 零士). Executed in ink and gouache. Produced by Toei Animation 1981–1982, Japan H23 L27 cm The Queen of the Deep Ages is a series by Leiji Matsumoto — the same author as Albator (lots 170–173) and Queen Emeraldas (lot 133). Yayoi Yukino, Queen Millennia, is an alien who has lived amongst humans for millennia, awaiting the return of her home planet Illumidas, which approaches Earth every thousand years. The series has direct links to the worlds of Albator and Galaxy Express 999 — Matsumoto’s characters cross paths and share the same fictional universe. This animation cell of Queen Millennia in her court dress is a relic from Matsumoto’s most prolific period in animation — and features one of the most enigmatic female characters in his universe.
