  Albrecht von Wallenstein in a version of his portrait by Anthony Van Dyck. His “dark and sinister aspect,” wrote a 19th-century commentator, was that of a man “whose hands have been imbrued in blood.”

  A caricature of 1629 shows Wallenstein riding on a peasant. His war-making was seen to impose an intolerable burden on the people of the Holy Roman Empire.

  This contemporary engraving narrates the story of Wallenstein’s assassination in strip-cartoon style.

  Garbaldi in 1849, at the time of the siege of Rome. “You have only to look into his face,” wrote one of his admirers, “and you feel that here is, perhaps, the one man in the world you would follow blindfold to death.”

  A contemporary lithograph of the Battle of San Antonio. This is one of the numerous popular images of Garibaldi’s exploits in South America that enhanced his celebrity in Europe.

  Garibaldi in his prime. With his wide-set eyes, long nose, and tawny whiskers he seemed to his admirers to resemble a lion.

  Garibaldi arrives in Southampton. When he visited England in 1864 he was welcomed by enormous, ecstatic crowds.

  Garibaldi’s name and image were widely used for merchandizing. There were Garibaldi shirts, Garibaldi hats, Garibaldi cigars, Garibaldi biscuits, and a Garibaldi Elixir.

  Garibaldi in the poncho and fez he habitually wore in his later years. “He looked,” wrote a French minister, “like a prophet, or an old comedian.”

  Westmacott’s statue of Achilles at Hyde Park Corner was erected in 1822 in honor of the Duke of Wellington. The female subscribers, embarrassed by its nudity, asked the sculptor to add a fig-leaf. Here spectators of the 1919 Trooping of the Colour use it as a viewing platform.

  Gabriele D’Annunzio, would-be Superman, painted by Romaine Brooks, who was one of his numerous lovers.

  El Cid proved his heroism by facing lions undaunted; Garibaldi looked like a lion; Benito Mussolini, self-appointed successor to a line of great men extending from Julius Caesar to Garibaldi, posed with a lion cub on his lap.

  A scene from Napoleon: The Hundred Days by Benito Mussolini, staged in London in 1932. Mussolini, like Nietzsche, revered Napoleon.

  By the middle of the 19th century, Drake, the self-serving pirate, had been reinvented as a dutiful public servant and protoimperialist. Here he kneels meekly to receive his knighthood.

  The Cid’s earthly remains, like the relics of saints, were too greatly venerated to be allowed to rest in peace. Here Baron Dominique Vivant Denon, traveler, connoisseur, and curator of Napoleon’s collection, is depicted by Alexandre Fragonard Replacing the Bones of Le Cid in His Tomb. Some fragments of those bones, however, remained in Denon’s possession.
