Typical Price
Rice Planting documents the essential agricultural ritual that has shaped Japanese culture for millennia. Watanabe lifetime editions of this seasonal labor scene sell for $800-$2,000. The figures bent in the flooded paddies provide human scale and narrative interest that distinguish this from Kasamatsu's more contemplative unpopulated landscapes.
