Konishi Hirosada (ca. 1810-1864) (Japanese: ?? ??); also known as Gosotei Hirosada; was a designer of ukiyo-e Japanese woodblock prints in Osaka. His artist name was originally Sadahiro (??); but he changed the sequence of syllables in 1847. One theory suggests he did this to evade censorship; but it was not unheard of for Japanese artists to change their art names for more whimsical reasons.

Hirosada was a member of the Osaka school of artists; which specialized in prints of actors. In the late 1840s and early 1850s; he was the leading figure in the Osaka school. For unknown reasons; Hirosada ceased designing prints in 1853 and gave his name to his prot間? who is now known as Hirosada II.
