Well, I'm not Christophe, but since your appearance was a surprise to me too,
you will excuse me for answering the question as well?
It is always difficult to imagine the face behind the words; all you have is
written text, and all you can do is imagine what kind of face would be most
likely to pronounce it. In your case, I would have expected the stereotypical
scholar; perhaps not with pointed beard and rimmed glasses, but definitely not
with the kind of beard and glasses you actually have on the picture. As a
matter of fact, I had expected something along the lines of Morgan Freeman.
