Suzuki Kiitsu was a prominent late [[Edo period]] painter in the [[Rinpa style]], a student and stylistic successor of [[Sakai Hoitsu|Sakai Hôitsu]].

Kiitsu was originally trained as a dyer of textiles, but later came to study painting under Sakai Hôitsu, and collaborated with Hôitsu on a number of projects. These included the ''[[Korin hyakuzu|Kôrin hyakuzu]]'' ("One Hundred Pictures by Kôrin"), a woodblock-printed book collecting line-drawing reproductions of compositions by [[Ogata Korin|Ogata Kôrin]] (d. [[1716]]), a painter of a few generations prior, after whom the Rinpa style took its name.
