The “Cruelest Man to Ever Live” has returned after 440 years. Thanks to the efforts of researchers, a Brazilian graphic designer was able to digitally recreate the visage of Ivan The Terrible, a Russian despot who ruled the land back in the 16th Century with an iron fist.
Impalement, being boiled alive, roasted over open fires, or being torn limb from limb by dogs were among the favorite execution methods of the despot whose bust we can finally appreciate, bringing us closer than ever to a man no one would ever want to come face-to-face with.
