Possibly the greatest gourmet ever, Kitaoji Rosanjin (1883-1959). He was such an epic culinary aesthete that he taught himself the art of making ceramics in order make tableware of as high level as the food he ate, happened to became one of the greatest ceramic artists in the history of Japan and refused a government stipend and title of "living national treasure" because he felt previous endowments given to insufficiently talented artists. His "teachers" were unknown 13th century craftsmen. He also became a master calligrapher, lacquerware artist and painter, designer and dabbled in architecture and carpentry. And so on.
