A guide for this piece: about $26, based on the 10% US charge on the declared value of goods made in Japan.
The final figure is set by US Customs and depends on where the piece was made and the kind of object it is. Many antiques over a century old carry no ordinary duty; most jewellery and leather goods add a single-digit rate.
With EMS, any charge is collected by your postal service on delivery. For pieces of significant value we can often arrange duties prepaid before dispatch.

A Portrait from the Cycle
Barney's Cremaster images look like stills from a dream with its own rules. This one, veiled and ruffed, has the stillness of an old master portrait and the strangeness of science fiction.
Best for: Collectors of Matthew Barney and of European museum posters

Freight piece: please confirm delivery before purchase
This piece travels in a crate or by freight rather than standard mail, and may need careful dismantling before it can be packed. The shipping shown at checkout is an estimate. Japonista reserves the right to determine the final handling, crating and freight cost when your order is received, according to the piece, the destination and carrier conditions at that time.
We advise requesting a delivery quote before checkout. If the final cost is higher than the amount paid, we send the difference for your approval before dispatch. Your piece is held for you until it is settled.

An Astrup Fearnley Museet poster with a detail from Matthew Barney's Cremaster Suite, 1994 to 2002. Offset at 50 x 70 cm, described as unused.
The Piece
A woman looks out of deep shadow, her head framed by a translucent dark veil and a high, pleated black ruff, the lower half of her face crossed by a dark strand. It is one of the composed, uncanny portraits from Barney's Cremaster cycle, the five-part film project that turned sculpture, costume and myth into a single sprawling work.
The image fills a black field, with the artist's name and exhibition line set small in white at upper right beside the museum's mark, and the museum name in a slim line at the foot. The page describes the poster as bought from the publisher and kept unused, opened only to check it, and notes that light handling marks may be present.
