Was he a religious figure? (like an archbishop or a pope or a saint or even a layperson who is well known for their religious contributions)

Ok, fair enough. I was thinking artist = painter, sculptor, etc., but musician applies as well. Thanks for not counting it.

You asked scientist before and although similar in a lot of ways to inventor, it's possible to be an inventor without being a scientist. Especially before the 19th century. He's neither of it though.

Wow...I should probably quit asking questions for a bit then, since I'm not getting anywhere. I'll give somebody else a chance for some questions.

It's hard to guess who he is by asking questions related to his occupation. That's a hint

Okay guys. I have someone in my mind. Ask ahead. (btw x-raider, I think we've evolved quite quickly here. Earlier we chose quite easy people to guess. But as our questions have become more fine tuned, we've had to chose harder targets.)
As you may have realized, I was referring to your avatar. (It's the first time you're judging since you started the game)
The other stuff you said is still good
Ok, I'll be out for the next day, Stay cool
P.S. When I get back I'm going to start a 20 questions in Starwars.

Something I said earlier: You may want to say "in the arts" or "in the sciences" if that's what you mean to say.
In Addition to the last 2/3 questions, was he alive before 1980?
I think that'll help get us some perspective.

He wasn't alive in the 20th century so no he wasn't in 1980. Did you mean 1890?
I'll give you guys another clue. He died a long time ago.

I know you said he will be hard to figure out by asking about his profession, but it's pretty to hard to guess who somebody is if we don't know what that somebody is, especially if it's somebody from a long time ago.

It will be hard to guess his occupation. (I accidentally edited this post instead of posting a new one, and erased the clue I gave about his proffesion not being important.)
