Typical Price

Hair-washing scenes connect Senpan to the traditional bijin-ga theme while expressing it through his distinctly modern sosaku-hanga aesthetic. The bold carving and vibrant color are hallmarks of his personal style. Numbered editions of 30-80 copies make these genuinely scarce handmade prints. Expect $500-$1,500 for well-preserved figure studies.

Description

A woman washing her long black hair at a wooden basin, a scene of quiet domestic intimacy.
