Typical Price
Shinobazu Pond in Tokyo's Ueno district is rendered here with Koitsu's characteristic sensitivity to light on water. Lotus ponds and urban park scenes offer a gentler counterpoint to his dramatic night views. Lifetime Watanabe editions typically sell for $1,200-$3,000, with posthumous reprints at $500-$1,500. Condition of the delicate water effects is important.
