Typical Price

Pique Dame (Queen of Spades) draws on the famous Pushkin tale or Tchaikovsky opera, bringing a European literary subject into Sekino's woodblock vocabulary. The theatrical drama of the subject suited his bold graphic approach. This hand-pulled limited edition typically sells for $200-$700.
