Typical Price
The celebrated Kintai Bridge at Iwakuni is shown in spring evening light in this standalone Hasui design. Lifetime editions sell for $800-$3,000. This is one of several Kintai Bridge compositions by Hasui, and the spring evening setting with its warm palette distinguishes it from his other renderings of the same subject. Collectors often seek multiple Kintai Bridge prints to compare Hasui's seasonal interpretations.
