The Man Who Traversed the Stars is a series of paintings by Hōraku Nakamura that vividly depict scenes from a story sharing the same title. This small collection, comprising watercolor, acrylic, and pen drawings, includes more than 50 artworks, each portraying scenes as experienced by a man who left Earth to journey to another planet. The stories and worldviews crafted alongside these images are also preserved in written text, with plans for future publication.
