Harukawa Eizan

In this Japanese name, the family name is Harukawa.

Harukawa Eizan (春川栄山) was a Japanese designer of ukiyo-e style Japanese woodblock prints who was active in the 1790s. He is believed to have been a student of Chōbunsai Eishi, and was the teacher of Harukawa Goshichi.

This artist should not be confused with Kikukawa Eizan (1787-1867), a later designer of ukiyo-e woodblock prints.
