Typical Price
Sunset compositions are among the most atmospheric in Capelari's limited body of work. The bold color treatment reflects his European training while the printing technique is purely Japanese. Check for the 6mm circular Watanabe seal to identify pre-earthquake first editions ($3,000-$7,000). Post-earthquake reprints typically sell for $1,500-$3,000.
Description
A vivid sunset reflected in calm waters, the sky ablaze with warm colors rendered through traditional printing techniques.
