What does this mean?

This is a vintage, mid 20th century, post World War II, Japanese sumi ink on silk silhouette style painting in black with silver and gold paint highlights in its original stylized carved 'bamboo' wood frame. Measuring 12" x 16" this depicts a lone fisher in a small boat with coastal views and a small building. These were intended as tourist, souvenir and export gifts for decorative wall art. The estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail 'asking prices' can be higher and vary.
