Key value factors: Edition order (first Watanabe/Doi printing vs. posthumous reprints) is crucial. Snow scenes, night views, and bijin-ga typically command premiums. Publisher seals and artist signatures authenticate first editions.
Listed under the artist's own name rather than a descriptive title, this woodblock print is one of several works in Yoshimitsu's catalog whose specific subject has not been individually documented. Nomura Yoshimitsu worked within the [shin-hanga](/glossary/shin-hanga) tradition, producing landscape views that centered on Kyoto's temples, waterways, and seasonal transformations. The absence of a title may reflect incomplete cataloging in the source database rather than an intentionally unnamed work. Shin-hanga prints were typically issued with titles inscribed in the margin or on accompanying wrappers, but these identifiers can be lost when prints are separated from their original packaging and enter secondary markets or institutional collections without full bibliographic records.
