According to this tweet, you should expect official SEGA licensed prints with Shenmue artwork:

Looking at that page, it seems this is just going to be some fanart that's green-lighted by Sega to go on sale by these guys for a premium price. Nothing to really get excited over. But I'm interested to see the Shenmue drawing.

Yes, I believe this particular one doesn't have anything to do with some sort of a new Shenmue release.

They said:
"We ask artists what their favorite classic game is and that's the one we have made. They really need to have a connection with it." source

"In the case of Jet Set Radio, that print was even co-art directed by the original art director of SEGA Japan." source

"These are indeed all licensed by SEGA. Official prints based on the original assets from the SEGA archives." source

The prices are definitely sour, and the artwork varies (compare Golden Axe to Streets of Rage lol) ... but all in all, this is still good news. It keeps Shenmue the franchise relevant. Anything to keep the dream alive =)
