Suzuki Harunobu (c. 1725 to 1770) was a Japanese designer of woodblock print art in the ukiyo-e style. He was an innovator, the first to produce full-color prints, known as nishiki-e, in 1765, rendering obsolete the earlier two- and three-color print modes. Harunobu used many special techniques and depicted a wide variety of subjects, from classical poems to contemporary beauties, and during his lifetime and shortly afterward many artists imitated his style. Much about his life is unknown.
