Released in 1999, "The Iron Giant" is regarded as one of the greatest animated features ever made. This artwork was originally created for a paper print that was released at the Warner Bros. Studio Stores and sold out in 2000. To celebrate the ten year anniversary of the print Warner Bros. authorized this deluxe canvas version of only 100 pieces to be released. The story depicts a boy who finds an enormous metal-clad giant hidden in the woods by his house. As the story takes place during the Cold War in 1957, thoughts and paranoia that the Giant is a threat to America’s well being, quickly ascend. "The Iron Giant" is one of the last animated features to be fully hand-drawn and painted. "The Iron Giant" is directed by Brad Bird who went on to direct The Incredibles and Ratatouille, and is considered one of the great animation directors of our generation. The characters were voiced by Eli Marienthal, Jennifer Aniston and Harry Connick, Jr. "The Iron Giant" is based on the 1968 novel The Iron Man by Ted Hughes. Nominated for the Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation and the Nebula Award from the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America. This is a limited edition giclee on canvas.

Sometimes described as "digital lithographs", giclees are created using extremely sophisticated computer equipment to create a reproduction virtually indistinguishable from the original.
Most giclees start with an original painting or illustration in oil, watercolour, or charcoal. The original work is scanned and colour corrected under the supervision of the artist before being printed with a extremely high resolution giclee printer. From the French term for "spray of ink", giclee printers lay down millions of microscopic ink droplets with such precision that the images, colours, and subtle nuances of the original piece are reproduced with breathtaking accuracy and beauty.
Giclees are created on high quality acid-free rag paper or on canvas, and are generally done in limited editions of no more than 750 pieces. They are often signed by the artist.
Limited edition giclees are a beautiful addition to any home and any art collection.
