Person-of-Mystery

Welcome to Cipher Saturday!  You've found the home of everyone's favorite weekend pastime, where a stylized image of a somewhat famous person from history is provided here for you to identify.

Today, Person-of-Mystery returns with a vengeance!  I'm now back to teaching after a lovely summer and while preparing for my classes, I have plenty of new semi-obscure personages to use over the upcoming weeks!


Additional clues may be found in the cipher below:

So, who could I be?  That's the mystery!  Go ahead and take a guess and then go enjoy your day.  Check back tomorrow and I'll reveal the answer.  The first correct post will be declared the winner.

If you'd like to make sure that your guess is correct, enter his name into Google Images and this photo will be found on the first pages of the image results.

  1. Interesting how the photo is 'scrambled'. Do you know of a program that changes a photo to a cartoon?

  2. Judi, due to the ability of ever improving image recognition technology, I'm having to find new ways of disguising the images using various filters. One program I've used many times on this site is an app called ToonPaint, although today I tried something altogether new.

  5. Nice picture! I couldn't guess the answer; something with a royal river, ruling of 12 and a wife with a prominent chin. But now I get it (Thames, 12th amendment, Julia Chinn), he was an interesting man.
