$500–$5,000. Common mountain prints: $500–$1,500. Key value factors: Azechi's cheerful mountain prints have consistent demand. Larger and more complex compositions are most valued.
The print titled with what appears to be the artist's own name—Azechi Umetaro—suggests either a self-portrait print, a signature composition, or possibly a database entry error where title and artist information were inadvertently transposed. If this is indeed a self-portrait, it would be among the rare direct self-representations in his predominantly mountain man and landscape-focused output, perhaps showing the artist as one of his own archetypal mountain figures.
