Typical Price
Lake Towada in Aomori Prefecture is one of Japan's most scenic caldera lakes, known for deep blue water surrounded by primeval forests. Asano's journey to this remote northern location suggests a deliberate effort to expand his subject range beyond Kyoto. This composition generally sells for $150-$500, and the vivid blues and greens of the Towada landscape suit his bold palette perfectly.
