Key value factors: As self-carved and self-printed works, sosaku-hanga value is tied to the artist's reputation and edition size. Larger formats, earlier editions, and historically significant works command the highest prices.
An untitled woodblock print from Kimura's contemporary body of work — the final in this sequence of unidentified prints. Together with his titled compositions, these untitled works form a body of output that represents one contemporary Japanese printmaker's sustained engagement with the visual traditions of Japan — its birds, its animals, its seas, its skies — through the bold graphic language of modern art. The synthesis that Kimura achieved across this body of work defined his contribution to Japanese printmaking in the second half of the twentieth century.
Untitled (kimura-yoshiharu) was created by Kimura Yoshiharu (木村吉晴).
