a fine impression of this scarce etching, one of the key images made during Orlik’s first visit to Japan; the details of the image and softness of tone demonstrate the delicate inking and wiping of the plate showing Orlik’s mastery of etching technique on wove paper with wide margins; in perfect condition .
