$500–$8,000. Common subjects: $500–$1,500. Key value factors: Gekko's prolific output makes most of his work affordable. Quality varies significantly.
The 1903 title unknown Fuji seen from a temple balcony—identified only by its subject description—documents the same compositional type as the similar Gekko print but from a later date, potentially showing a different temple vantage or a revised treatment of the subject. By 1903 the Sino-Japanese War prints had been replaced by the approaching Russo-Japanese War as the dominant public subject, and Gekko's return to landscape subjects like the Fuji view represented a retreat to the stable commercial territory of scenic printing.
