The only ones I can add are that man on the left with the guandao, green robe and reddish complexion is Guan Yu, and I want to say the wavy-haired, mutton-chopped man is Simon Bolivar, but I’m surprised to see him out of military uniform.

Some I haven’t seen listed: Christopher Columbus, Bill Gates, Prince Charles, Douglas Macarthur (to the right of Pavarati), Sigmund Freud (front table, with cards), Jonas Salk, Oppenheimer (to the left of Shakespeare), Ernest Hemingway (next to Elvis), Henry Ford (next to Charlie Chaplain’s Tramp), Lewis Carroll (next to Shirley Temple).

I’ve seen other lists that show George Bush with the spyglass and Vladimir Putin down front with Mike Tyson. I’ll admit the faces look like them, but below the neck doesn’t convince me. Why would Bush have a spyglass? Why does “utin” look like he came from 1953?

I see Steven Spielberg right below Attila, Is it Hernan Cortes to the left of Bruce Lee?, Mijail Gorvachov is waving his hand right above Mother Teresa.

Hi thanks glad you all liked it, I am still looking myself!.
The guy with the flute is indeed Kofi Annan,, the boxer I had as Tyson (although it is the same position Ali fell – the only time he was knocked over by Henry Cooper).
At the games table is ex olympic comitee president Juan Antonio Samaranch. I think we have about 70 so far….
The artist must be Asian as there seems to be a big influence that way with the personalities…
Thanks again .. joe

I’m not even going to try and name everyone I see, except for Lenin, cuz I saw him first.

But, does anyone recognize the flute player standing behind Prince Charles? just curious.

Thanks Joe, for an absolutely fun puzzle!!
