$500–$5,000. Common prints: $500–$1,500. Key value factors: Tajima's powerful abstract prints have appeal among both Japanese print and modern art collectors.
"Distant Memory L," 1966, belongs to a labeled series in which Tajima explored the visual experience of recollection — hazy, fragmented, tinged with both longing and loss. Color is laid down in soft fields that blur and bleed into one another, mimicking the way memory softens and transforms the original experience. The large-format "L" suggests this was one of his more expansive treatments of the theme, given room to spread and breathe across the washi surface.
