Guessing the decades of random historical paintings I have saved on my phone based on the style of clothing. I might do this more often since it was quite fun.
The high waistline with a small amulet on the top of the bodice, a flared part on the bottom of the bodice, big and short sleeves with minimal decor, long and slightly wide dress, also with minimal decor, incredibly low neckline, and the (probably) pommed bangs and big curly hair make me think that this is 1630s, but it could be a bit later than that.
The big sleeves with the folded parts, the low and rounded neckline with the transparent fabric around it and the hair that is tied up on top but loose behind makes me think that this might be 1530s, I can't be very sure though.
The elegant linen sleeves, wide collar, curly hair, seemingly wide breeches (thought they're not very visible from this angle), and the wide justacorp make me believe that this is possibly 1670s.
The curly and narrow powdered hair which is long at the back with devil horn bangs, the triangular neckline with a decorated bodice, the wide, puffy sleeves, low, triangular waistline, and slightly wide skirt makes me think that this is 1710s or maybe a bit later.
The short hair that is pushed downwards, big and long cravat with a bit of frill on the bottom part, long overcoat, short and tight undercoat, slightly loose sleeves, and sort of tight pantaloons make me think that this is 1810s or somewhere around that.
I want to say that this guy looks like Adam Sandler. The Chaperon is wide, his bangs are short, the jerkin is big and puffy with a gash in it, which makes the linen undershirt visible, his sleeves are puffy, and his linen sleeves slightly peak out, which makes me believe that is might be 1520s.

There was someone named James Wilson aboard the Revenge, so I think that there should be a crew member played by Robert Sean Leonard (who played Dr. James Wilson in House M.D.), even if it’s only for part of an episode.
