$1,000–$8,000. Common subjects: $1,000–$2,500. Key value factors: Hashimoto's bold castle prints are his most recognizable and collected works. Larger formats command premiums.
Stone Garden (2), printed in 1960 in an edition of ten, presents a second compositional arrangement within Hashimoto's stone garden series. The low edition of ten indicates this was among his more intimate and carefully controlled garden prints. Stone gardens — whether dry karesansui or moss gardens with placed stones — provided him with endlessly variable arrangements of the same essential elements: rock, ground, and the space between them. Each numbered variant in the series represents a different solution to the formal problem of organizing these elements into a satisfying composition.
