Alfred Dreyfus, age 76.

Alfred Dreyfus (French: [al.fʁɛd dʁɛ.fys]; 9 October 1859 – 12 July 1935) was a French Jewish artillery officer whose trial and conviction in 1894 on charges of treason became one of the most tense political dramas in modern French history with a wide echo in all Europe.

Known today as the Dreyfus affair, the incident eventually ended with Dreyfus' complete exoneration.
