Impression Very Fine.

Condition Absolutely Pristine.
On nicely "age-mellowed" paper. (No flaws noted.)
Reference/Illus na
Comments A strikingly sentuous modern-day "bijin-ga" image--eyes closed, bared shoulders.
By a virtually unheard-of artist whose prints are quite RARE. (A reliable source in Tokyo tells us that "most Okada prints are found badly foxed.") NOTE: Our source indicates nearly "sold out". (Stock photos.)
