Typical Price
The February entry in Tokuriki's monthly Kyoto series captures the annual Hatsuuma festival at Fushimi Inari Shrine, with its processions among the famous vermillion torii gates. Festival scenes add human activity that contrasts with the quieter landscape-focused months in this set. Publisher editions from Unsodo generally trade between $75-$300, and this winter subject holds appeal as a companion to the January snow scene.
