$500–$5,000. Common prints: $500–$1,500. Key value factors: Kitaoka's refined style has a modest but loyal collector base.
A young girl — one of Kitaoka's recurring figure studies identified by a simple alphanumeric designation — is rendered with the directness that characterizes his figurative work across several decades. The subject looks outward with a composed, unsentimental gaze, the face built from broad planes of color rather than delicate line, reflecting Kitaoka's modernist conviction that woodblock's unique contribution lay in its capacity for bold formal statement rather than reproductive naturalism.
