Who is this man in the Portrait?

Who is this man? 

 

 

 

This man features in a portrait in the map Buried. I have spent a fair while trying to find out who he is, but to no avail. I think he will be either a Freemason or Rosicrucian & someone of great importance as are the other two men shown in the Portraits. (See spoiler tab below)

 

 

 

Michael Faraday

 

 

 

 

Props to MurderMachineX for first bringing this to my attention

 

 

Michael Faraday, FRS (22 September 1791 – 25 August 1867) was an English scientist who contributed to the fields of electromagnetism and electrochemistry. His main discoveries include those of electromagnetic induction, diamagnetism and electrolysis.

 

Although Faraday received little formal education he was one of the most influential scientists in history. It was by his research on the magnetic field around a conductor carrying a direct current that Faraday established the basis for the concept of the electromagnetic field in physics. Faraday also established that magnetism could affect rays of light and that there was an underlying relationship between the two phenomena. He similarly discovered the principle of electromagnetic induction, diamagnetism, and the laws of electrolysis. His inventions of electromagnetic rotary devices formed the foundation of electric motor technology, and it was largely due to his efforts that electricity became practical for use in technology.

 

As a chemist, Faraday discovered benzene, investigated the clathrate hydrate of chlorine, invented an early form of the Bunsen burner and the system of oxidation numbers, and popularised terminology such as anode, cathode, electrode, and ion. Faraday ultimately became the first and foremost Fullerian Professor of Chemistry at the Royal Institution of Great Britain, a lifetime position.

William Frederick ”Buffalo Bill” Cody

 

 

 

 

William Frederick "Buffalo Bill" Cody (February 26, 1846 – January 10, 1917) was an American soldier, bison hunter and showman. Buffalo Bill received the Medal of Honor in 1872 for service to the US Army as a scout. One of the most colorful figures of the American Old West, Buffalo Bill became famous for the shows he organized with cowboy themes, which he toured in Great Britain and Europe as well as the United States.

 

Cody was active in the concordant bodies of Freemasonry, being initiated in Platte Valley Lodge No. 32, North Platte, Nebraska, on March 5, 1870. He received his 2nd and 3rd degrees on April 2, 1870, and January 10, 1871, respectively. He became a Knight Templar in 1889 and received his 32nd degree in Scottish Rite of Freemasonry in 1894.

 

 

 

 

 

Hopefully someone can help. I need to know who he is.

Sorry Pinnaz. I noticed him a while ago. I just never really mentioned him because I also had no idea who he was. Although I would joke with my friends that maybe that's because he was one of the Treyarch team inserting himself into the map for fun.

Looks like a typical town Mayor.

 

When I search by image on google, it just brings up various Nobles painted in that similar style, but if it is of any concern, a lot of these images I recognize as political figures, mostly Presidents and Revolutionaries.
