Famous Jesuits main phenotypes

[Sebastianus Rex]

Portraits of the founders of the Society of Jesus and some of the most famous Jesuits, almost all of those for which exists a somewhat reliable depiction done during their lifetime. They are identified with their original names instead of the more widely known latinized versions they adopted - for ex. Iñigo instead of Ignatius, Pieter Kanis instead of Peter Canisius etc.

Discuss about the main phenotypes and why are they so nosey ? From this random search of the members listed on the wikipedia page it almost seems like having a long convex/aquiline/hook nose was a requirement to be admitted in the order.

Most of them look like a mix of Dinarid + Med to me.

Dinarid seems to be an understatement for many of the portraits...

Dinaro-Meds, Baskids and Dinaro-Alpine-Meds

Dinaro-Meds, Baskids and Dinaro-Alpine-Meds

Dinarid here is kind of a umbrella term...I would add Littorid and Orientalid/Armenoid, some are very obvious.

BINGO!

Nearly 100% on this one, which is historically and genealogically proven, even the wikipedia article admits and so did Benjamin D'Israeli (former British prime minister and author) in one of his books.

One of the oddest and ironic things I often find is how many White supremacists/fascists/anti-Semites can look kind of Jewish themselves. The latest example I can think of is this editor of a controversial English newspaper called The Light:
