Nishikawa Sukenobu (1671-1750), often called simply "Sukenobu", was a Japanese printmaker from Kyoto. He was unusual for a ukiyo-e in being based in the imperial capital of Kyoto. He did prints of actors, but gained note for his works concerning women. His "Hyakunin joro shinasadame" ("Appreciating 100 women"), in two volumes published in 1723, depicted women of all classes, from the empress to prostitutes, and received favorable results. Wikipedia
