Typical Price
Lake Toya in Hokkaido, another volcanic caldera lake, represents the northernmost reach of Asano's known subjects. The lake's central island and surrounding mountains create a dramatic composition that translates well to the woodblock format. Prices typically range from $150-$500, and Hokkaido subjects by Kyoto-based artists carry a certain novelty value among collectors.
