$2,000–$20,000. Common subjects: $2,000–$5,000. Key value factors: Jacoulet's limited editions (typically 350 impressions) and distinctive subjects make his work consistently sought after.
Produced in 1924, this early Jacoulet print appears to reference or pay homage to Ikeda Shoen (1884–1917) — possibly a misreading of "Uemura Shoen" (1875–1949), the celebrated Kyoto bijin-ga painter, with the dates perhaps pointing to an alternative identification. An early 1920s work by Jacoulet would represent some of his first Japanese-style woodblock production, when he was still developing the technical mastery that would define his mature output. If a portrait tribute, it demonstrates his early engagement with Japan's traditional arts.
