Suzuki Harunobu was an innovator, the first to produce full-color woodblock prints 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. Like many artists of his day, Harunobu also produced a number of shunga or erotic images. During his lifetime and shortly afterward, many artists imitated his style.
