TERMS OF SALE

Production and Shipping

All photographic works are produced to order upon confirmation of your payment. Production time depends on the size of the print:

Small and Medium works typically require 2–3 weeks.
Large works may require 4–6 weeks.
Unframed (print-only) works usually ship faster.

Please note that these are estimates; shipping will follow immediately after production is complete.

All international shipments are handled via DHL and are fully insured. Packing is in protective tubes for print-only works and in custom crates for large framed works. Tracking details will be provided upon dispatch.

Materials and Care

Lambda prints (black-and-white on Ilford Baryta; color on Fujicolor Crystal Archive) are archival-grade.

To preserve your work, avoid direct sunlight, high humidity, and heat sources.

Authenticity and Copyright

Each artwork is accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity (COA) for verification.

For framed works, the artist’s signature and edition number are inscribed on the verso.

For unframed prints, the artist’s signature and edition number are written on the print margin.

The purchase of a fine art print does not transfer copyright.

All rights to the image remain the sole property of the artist, Mitsugu Matsumoto.

Taxes and Duties

For international collectors, please note that the purchase price does not include any import taxes, customs duties, or VAT.

The recipient is responsible for all such charges, as determined by the customs authorities of the destination country.

For deliveries within Japan, a 10% consumption tax (VAT) will be added as required by law.

At checkout, Japanese customers will see the final price in JPY, calculated at the prevailing exchange rate.

Payments can be made securely via credit card, PayPal, or bank transfer.

Cancellations, Returns, and Refunds

As each work is custom-produced for the collector, we cannot accept cancellations once production has commenced. All sales are final.

In the unlikely event that a work arrives damaged during transit, please contact us within 48 hours of receipt with photographic evidence of the damage to both the packaging and the artwork. We will arrange for a replacement.
