Key value factors: For living or recently deceased artists, limited edition size and gallery representation drive value. Signed and numbered prints from smaller editions are most desirable.
This woodblock print by Sugiura Kazutoshi exemplifies the technical synthesis that made his career distinctive: a training in classical nihonga painting at the Kyoto National Museum, combined with postgraduate mastery of silkscreen and lithographic overprinting, resulted in a printmaking practice unlike any of his contemporaries. Works catalogued under the artist's name rather than a descriptive title typically represent pieces recorded in auction or dealer databases before full provenance information was available. His floral subjects — particularly irises and peonies — are held in the Brooklyn Museum, MoMA, and the Art Institute of Chicago.
