Typical Price
The dramatic red sunset behind a Japanese castle makes this one of Kasamatsu's most visually striking Watanabe-published compositions. Standard lifetime editions range from $1,000-$2,500. The vivid sunset coloring required careful bokashi gradation work, and impressions with well-preserved reds are especially valued since fugitive pigments can fade over time.
