Before you start complaining, let me just say this first – This isn’t an optical illusion! Hah, 1st comment! My aunt sent me this photo, and I found it quite interesting. Assignment she gave me was to recognize more than 100 famous people through history inside it. Email I received stated that if you recognize more than 25, you can consider yourself well educated and cultural person. I have recognized around 30 of them, but never considered my self much of an expert in general culture field. Unfortunately, the artist forgot to include my portrait in his artwork, but maybe some of you are famous enough to take part in it. Who knows! Let’s try to recognize them all together! Please no more than 5 answers per post. I’ll start with some dictators: Stalin, Lenin, Fidel Castro, Mao Zedong, Saddam… be sure to open the picture in new window, to see it in full size. More similar “games” can be found here. Good luck!

P.S. Alessandro added numbers so you can connect the celebrity with according person…
