It is a quite large piece.
The condition of the artwork is generally good, but there is noticeable waviness overall.
There is a signature in the lower right corner.
There is a slight misalignment between the frame and the photograph (it is slightly shifted to the right, resulting in a vertical margin of about 2 mm on the left side).
This piece is the cover artwork for the 2012 photography book "Daido Moriyama," published by the American publisher Phaidon.

ABOUT Daido Moriyama
Along with Nobuyoshi Araki and others, he can be said to have established the history of Japanese photography. He is also famous as one of the most beautiful monotone photographers, and his work was recognized nearly half a century ago when he created images that overturned the very concept of photography. He used what had been considered a "failure," such as blur and blurriness, as a means of expression, similar to the brush strokes used in paintings. Snapshots of everyday life, both good and bad, are blended into beautiful monotone gradations. He is one of the most acclaimed Japanese photographers in the world, and his work fetches high prices.
