Suzuki Harunobu · About 1767 · Art Institute of Chicago
Looking for this guide.
Suzuki Harunobu made this print depicting two people catching fireflies during the early years of full-color printing. Here the night appears as a flat black, and the fireflies have no glow. Instead of atmospheric effects, the image focuses on the complicated and elegant design of the colorful clothing worn by the young man and woman.
