A guide for this piece: about $29,684, 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.

Sale Ends, version two, the screenprint of 2017 in which mourners from an old master kneel before a red sale sign, offered signed and framed with its certificate.
The Piece
Four draped figures, drawn in the manner of a Renaissance lamentation, throw themselves down in grief. What they grieve is a red placard reading Sale Ends Today. The figures are printed in black and grey on a white sheet with a deckled lower edge, and the red is the only colour. A signature in pencil sits at the lower right. It is shown in a black frame with a white mount.
The keeper records buying it from Pictures on Walls before that publisher closed. The certificate is shown with personal details masked.
Worship at the Till
Sale Ends first appeared in 2006 and was reissued in this second version in 2017, in the last months of Pictures on Walls. It is the clearest statement of a theme that runs through all the work: shopping as the religion of the age, with its own saints, its own despair and its own closing time. The joke lands harder for being drawn so beautifully.
