Typical Price
Zojoji Temple in the Shiba district of Tokyo holds special significance in Japanese print history, famously depicted by Hasui. Kasamatsu's own interpretation offers a personal perspective on this iconic subject. Watanabe lifetime editions sell for $1,000-$2,500. Collectors often display this alongside Hasui's version, making it a compelling companion piece in any shin-hanga collection.
