Typical Price
Portraying an elderly Japanese fisherman, this print reveals Jacoulet's empathy for working people across cultures. Japanese male subjects are less commonly collected than his Korean beauties or Pacific Islanders, making them relatively accessible. Expect to pay $800-$3,500, with strong condition and intact metallic pigments at the higher end.
Description
Portrait of a weathered Japanese fisherman, one of Jacoulet's relatively rare Japanese subjects. The deeply lined face and sun-darkened skin are rendered with sympathetic realism.
