100 Rs
Suzuki Harunobu (1724 - 1770) was a Japanese designer of woodblock print art in the ukiyo-e style.
He was an innovator, the first to produce full-color (nishiki-e) prints in 1765, rendering obsolete the former modes of two- and three-color prints. Harunobu used many special techniques, and depicted a wide variety of subjects, from classical poems to contemporary beauties. During his lifetime and shortly afterwards, many artists imitated his style. A few, such as Harushige, even boasted of their ability to forge the work of the great master. Much about Harunobu's life is unknown.

About Young Woman In Summer Suzuki Harunobu Japanese Painting Ukiyoe Woodblock Art Print
'A Young Woman in a Summer Shower' Japanese Woodblock Print. This stunning print depicts an ordinary chore, with added drama. A young woman is caught in a sudden rain shower while tending to her laundry, as if she were rushing to get her sheets off the line before they got wet. One of her shoes is behind her, as the rain begins to pelt down. It is an active and very colorful print with nice saturation of color and wonderful details. Harunobu used nishiki-e to capture the urban, everyday world of Edo in brilliant color. He is considered a true luminary of ukiyo-e, a talent beyond compare. From shunga (erotic prints) to classical poems, he is a master of color. Harunobu’s genius is particularly apparent in his depictions of young, innocent women. Presenting a delicate, youthful vision of idealized femininity, he influenced many artists to come. About the Posters
