Rodolfo Alfonso Raffaello Pierre Filiberto Guglielmi di Valentina d'Antonguella (May 6, 1895 – August 23, 1926), more commonly recognized as Rudolph Valentino, was an Italian actor who made his mark in the United States. He gained fame for his roles in several iconic silent films, such as The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, The Sheik, Blood and Sand, The Eagle, and The Son of the Sheik. During the 1920s, Valentino emerged as a prominent sex symbol, often referred to in Hollywood as the Latin Lover—a moniker coined by industry executives—along with titles such as the Great Lover or simply Valentino. His untimely passing at the age of 31 incited widespread grief among his admirers, solidifying his status as a significant cultural figure in the annals of early cinema.
