Typical Price
"Forest of the Water God" (Suijin no Mori) presents a sacred grove shrouded in atmosphere, reflecting Koitsu's training under Kiyochika in rendering light through foliage. Nature subjects without architecture are relatively uncommon in his output. Lifetime editions sell for $1,200-$3,000, while posthumous Watanabe reprints trade between $500-$1,500.
