$2,000–$15,000. Common subjects: $2,000–$4,000. Key value factors: As a living artist continuing the shin-hanga tradition, Binnie's prints are investment-quality. Limited editions and larger formats are most valued.
The engawa — the wooden veranda that mediates between Japanese interior and exterior, private and natural — provides Binnie with a subject that is architecturally specific but emotionally expansive. In traditional Japanese aesthetics, the engawa is the place where the inside and outside worlds meet and blur, where one sits to watch snow or maple leaves without quite being in either realm. This first edition renders that liminal space with the atmospheric subtlety that [shin-hanga](/glossary/shin-hanga) landscape excels at.
