A method of producing an image recorded material is a method including an image recording of sequentially applying a pretreatment liquid containing an aggregating agent, a first ink containing a first resin, and a second ink containing a second resin onto an impermeable base material to record an image, in which in the image recording, the image is recorded under a condition in which a ratio of a total applied mass of the first resin and the second resin per unit area to an applied mass of the aggregating agent per unit area in an overlapping region formed such that a region where the pretreatment liquid is applied, a region where the first ink is applied, and a region where the second ink is applied overlap each other in plan view is generated is 16.0 or greater and 30.0 or less.
