This elegant parasol composition is among the most visually striking of Capelari's figure studies. The parasol motif connects to a long tradition in Japanese bijin-ga while carrying Capelari's distinctive Western approach to form and shadow. Pre-earthquake editions (check for the 6mm circular Watanabe seal) bring $4,000-$10,000; post-earthquake reprints sell for $2,000-$4,000.
