Typical Price
"Sunset at Tomonotsu" captures the harbor town of Tomonoura bathed in warm evening light, a subject well-suited to Koitsu's mastery of atmospheric color. Sunset compositions are less common than his night scenes but equally atmospheric. Lifetime editions sell for $1,500-$3,500, while posthumous Watanabe reprints range from $500-$1,500.
