$1,000–$15,000. Common landscapes: $1,000–$3,000. Key value factors: Kasamatsu's early shin-hanga works (pre-1955) tend to be more valued than his later sosaku-hanga production.
A Shinto shrine in Ueno — one of the several smaller shrines within Ueno Park — appears in the quiet between the festivals and crowds that regularly animated the park. Ueno's shrine compounds, including those of Toshogu and the smaller deity shrines that cluster in its wooded sections, offered Kasamatsu subjects where architecture and vegetation had grown together over centuries into inseparable compositions. The shrine likely appears in [sakura](/glossary/sakura) season or autumn, when the park's trees transform these modest compounds.
