Shunkōsai Hokushū
Shunkōsai Hokushū (春好斎 北洲), who is also known as Shunkō IV, was a designer of ukiyo-e style Japanese woodblock prints in Osaka who was active from about 1802 to 1832. He is known to have been a student of Shōkōsai Hambei, and may have also studied with Hokusai.[1] He used the name Shunkō (春好) until 1818, when he changed his name to “Shunkōsai Hokushū”. He was the most important artist in Osaka during the 1810-1820s and established the Osaka style of actor prints.[2]

gollark: If you pick a word to start with, then the next possibilities for your thing are a limited subset of all words - those without the letters in said first word. Though admittedly checking that would be slow too.

gollark: `wc -l < /usr/share/dict/words` says there are only 123115 words.
