$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.
Mountain Man with a Rope 59/100—the fifty-ninth impression from a run of one hundred, toward the later end of a larger edition—shows Azechi producing this subject for wider distribution than his small experimental editions. A run of 100 was among his larger editions, suggesting the rope-carrying mountain man was a commercially successful subject that reached collectors through multiple channels including the gallery exhibitions and print fairs where his work circulated throughout Japan and internationally.
