Really? About a million-kajillion submissions for Maximilien "Deskman" Robespierre but absolutely none for THE Marie-Jean Hérault de Séchelles — aka the man who helped draft the Constitution of 1793?
Just take one look at this tall drink of water! He's got a legal mind with a courtier's grace, the finest wit and the handsomest face: With eyes like a dream and a soul made of fire, The only lawmaker I’ll ever admire 💕
My beautiful boy Oswald Boelcke (1891-1916) ! A ww1 ace, he is hailed as the father of aerial warfare. He was one of the 1st ace to score 40 victories and taught the well known ace of aces Manfred von Richthofen, the red baron. In general he was beautiful and also extremely kind and level headed. He was a natural leader and I can't think of any bad qualities he had.

May I submit for your consideration the one and only Dante Aleghieri.
Born in 1265, in Firenze, Tuscany, and exiled in 1301 at the age of 36, Dante spent the last twenty years of his life as a dependant of wealthy patrons. It was during this period of exile that he wrote his best-loved piece La Divina Commdia. Much of the inspiration for his work came from his early years (Beatrice, Virgil, Thomas Aquinas, etc). However, his capacity and abilities grew by leaps and bounds later in his life and it was this powerful combination of firey inspiration and clear-headed writing that make his work so poignant. I love him to absolute bits.

So glad you're back! Love history crushes on my dash 🖤
we are run on submissions! everyone submit your beautiful dead folks!
Henry Scott Tuke, 1858 - 1929, is one of my top historical crushes. I mean look at that tache! He was an impressionist painter, and spent much of his time in the 1880s and 90s with the Newlyn School movement. His most notable works include maritime paintings of sailboats, and of course, nude young men.
Since I’m oh so Lucky to share a birthday with him :3 I would love to talk about how I’ve had a crazy crush on the Japanese novelist and short story writer Dazai Osamu (1909-1948) since I was 13! I find his writing, with it’s relatable themes and characters and often sardonic humor, as well as photos of him (physical appearance) crazily attractive and have been motivated solely by him to learn Japanese in order to read more of his works that have yet to be translate into copies. Despite what he thought of himself as a writer, I find him to have been incredibly talented, especially at such a young range of age! I truly wish he could see just how famous and loved he is as writer in both his own country and even other parts of the world. I just adore him so so much. And, please enjoy this photo I chose as it is one of my many favorite photos of him (I’m also so obsessed with Dazai I even write references of his into my own stories and one day I may post things about that on my own page heehehehe).
I have to admit that Mozart has started to grow on me. He has such kissable lips and delicate hands that could caress your face as he hums in your ear. His eyes are sharp enough to seduce you with a single gaze before he pulls you in with his music.
It's bad enough that I have one of his compositions on my PC. I've also dedicated an entire HOUR to designing a character for a project that was made with his likeness in mind. I've held this crush for him for so long, and I'm glad I could tell others about it on this blog.
Classical composers are dreamy... (I need help.)

Franciszek Krudowski (1860–1945) - Polish painter. (Painted by Jan Styka). He painted mainly portraits and religious scenes.
Thomas Riley Marshall looks so friendly. I think he’s really cute! He was Woodrow Wilson’s vice president, and a real progressive pro-worker’s rights guy. He was also known for his sense of humor (he was so fond of telling jokes that Wilson apparently moved his office so he wouldn’t bother anyone). One of his more famous quips was “A woman had two sons. One was lost at sea and the other became Vice President. Neither was heard from again.”
Shout out to you still being around, I think you were around when I had an active euro history blog in like 2010/2011. Am I remembering that right? Good for you
Yes! This blog started in 2010, so that sounds right! Haha, old dead people are hot and I can't quit...
I actually have many history crushes, but I want to focus on the "uncredited hero" of the cold war. I want to shout out to Vasili arkhipov, a Russian officer of the navy, for stopping a potential annihilation of humanity by nuclear arsenal conflict, through saying "no" of launching nukes.
