Ok /lit/, it's time for "Guess the author"

Rules :

1- We post a pic of an author. (photograph, portrait, whatever)
2- Poster below guesses who the man from the pic is, and posts a new pic so the game can continue.
3- No Google/Wikipedia. This is an Anonymous board, if you don't know who a guy is, we won't laugh at you (because we aren't able to find out, in the first place). So don't spoil the fun for the guys who actually know who the author is and genuinely deserve the "credit".

PROTIP: Make sure the name of the author is not in the filename.

Let's start with this guy... 19th century.
