Kôriki Tanenobu, also known as Enkôan, was a prominent [[Nagoya]]-based book collector and illustrator, as well as being a samurai retainer of the [[Owari Tokugawa clan]].

Tanenobu was self-taught in book illustration, studying ''[[ukiyo-e]]'' styles and projection drawing techniques on his own, and producing images mainly of festivals and other popular and public gatherings.

His students included [[Odagiri Shunko|Odagiri Shunkô]]. He died on [[1831]]/7/3 at the age of 76. Many of Tanenobu's diaries survive today, serving as valuable historical sources.
