$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.
"Summer - Natsu" is a seasonal landscape print in which the specific qualities of Japanese summer — the dense green of full foliage, the heavy heat that compresses the atmosphere, the particular light of the solstice — are rendered through Binnie's woodblock technique. Where his spring prints employ pale, atmospheric color and his winter prints tend toward tonal restraint, summer demands saturated greens and the full heat of his color palette. The print stands as a seasonal statement within the larger arc of his landscape work.
