From dibyo, came this question. Thanks dude. Mail in your questions to [email protected]

The person pictured is the fourth man to accomplish something (we know of some/all of the first three to do this). He retired from that life to become a full time artist in 1981. The other picture is that of him while painting one of his better known works. Identify him or the achievement

PS: Apologies for posting it late.
