Typical Price
Nezu Shrine blanketed in snow creates a serene winter scene that combines two of Koitsu's most appealing subjects: shrine architecture and snowfall. The quiet intimacy of this smaller shrine, compared to his grand temple views, gives it a distinctive charm. Lifetime editions sell for $2,000-$4,000, posthumous for $700-$1,800.
