Description

Mallard in a Coastal Scene is considered an unusual print for Ohara Koson as it depicts a landscape without strict focus on the mallard ducks present.

Condition notes

The print is in fair condition. There is mat burn and mild browning in the image. The paper has aged, is slightly wavy, especially in the margins, and has a pinhole in the top left corner. On the verso, remnants of a previous mounting remain.
