Taxi Driver Poster by Yann Legendre On Sale Today


Paris-based designer Yann Legendre brings us this striking print, adapted from his cover for the French edition of the TAXI DRIVER novel!

From Yann-
“In 1974, Paul Schrader begins work on a screenplay that is going to change his life: the story of a young lonely man, Travis Bickle, ex Marines, who tries to escape from his boring life and his loneliness by becoming a cab driver.
This story is partly inspired by his own life and experiences. For developing the story, Schrader start working with a poet very popular in New York back then, Richard Elman.

More talented than Schrader, Elman develops in parallel to the screenplay, a novel, based on the character of Travis Bickle: the journal of this young naive man who discover day after day the violence and the perversion of the New York’s life… He learns the self-defense and start to do his own justice in the streets of Manhattan.”

This limited edition 18″x 24″ 4-color hand-pulled silkscreen art print will be signed and numbered in an edition of only 50 world wide. Print will be for sale this TUESDAY at 2pm CST in the Art Prints section of the Nakatomi store.
