Anyone you admire in history for the looks as well as talents...or perhaps just looks? I'm curious to see what you all think!
Maréchal Joachim Murat has got to be my all time favorite; dark hair, light eyes, and a lovely complexion:  | | |

I am straight but Cesare Borgia's Jesus-like appearance is stunning.  | | | |

Can't say I know anything about him, so not really a 'crush' but Ippolito de Medici was a fine looking gent:  | | | |

I had a crush on Prince Rupert of the Rhine when I was young.

I guess I don't really form emotional attachments to real historical people like that. I can become attached to portrayals of them in historical fiction but who knows how much of those character assessments are really true.
But I did used to have a crush on the mythical King Arthur and at the moment, I'm kind of obsessed with Robb Stark from Game of Thrones.

George Patton. He's always number one in my book.  | | | |
