Condition Pristine. On nicely "age-mellowed" paper. (No flaws noted.)
Reference/Illus na
Comments A strikingly voluptuous modern-day "bijin-ga" image--surfing eyes closed under a curling wave. Virtually unheard-of artist whose prints are quite RARE. (A reliable source in Tokyo tells us that "most Okada prints are found badly foxed.")
