Typical Price

Yoshida's depiction of the Gion Shrine gate in Kyoto captures one of Japan's most famous Shinto landmarks. Studio editions of this architectural subject trade between $1,000-$2,800, while jizuri impressions with the self-printed seal reach $1,800-$4,000. Shrine and temple gate compositions form a distinctive thread through Yoshida's work, and Kyoto subjects carry added cultural cachet.
