Hokusai was definitely a Buddhist and it seems like Bashō might have been too.

Not possible due to Question 13.MythosOfMen wrote: ↑Sat Jul 13, 2024 1:33 amWas this person a ukiyo-e artist? If so...

Eh, I just carefully reread Q11, so I will guess the tea guy.Spartaculous wrote: ↑Sat Jul 13, 2024 2:16 amThis isn't a guess, because I don't think he fits, but I found this guy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furuta_Oribe
I saw him described as a warrior/tea master, which is an interesting combination.
