Shinsui Ito (Japanese: ?? ??, romanized: Ito Shinsui; 4 February 1898 – 8 May 1972) was the pseudonym of a Nihonga painter and ukiyo-e woodblock print artist in Taisho- and Showa-period Japan.
He was one of the great names of the shin-hanga art movement, which revitalized the traditional art after it began to decline with the advent of photography in the early 20th century.
His real name was Ito Hajime (Japanese: ?? ?).
