Typical Price
Rain scenes are a beloved motif in Japanese printmaking, and Capelari's interpretation brings a distinctly Western perspective to the tradition. With only about 24 known designs, each Capelari subject carries inherent rarity. Pre-earthquake impressions in good condition range $3,000-$8,000; post-earthquake reprints from $1,500-$3,500.
Description
A Japanese temple seen through falling rain, the wet surfaces reflecting light in a moody composition.
