Typical Price
This dignified portrait of a Korean nobleman reflects Keith's ability to convey cultural identity through careful observation of dress and bearing. Korean portrait subjects are particularly prized among her works, as they record a vanishing aristocratic tradition. With no posthumous editions ever produced, expect $1,500-$5,000 depending on impression quality.
Description
