On the left is Willard Quine.
Nope!
How sure are you? It seems plausible that Quine looked like that at one time, but none of the pictures of him I can find look all that similar. And while Quine did important work on many many things, I wouldn't put causality high on the list of things he's known for working on.
Still, I've so far failed to find anyone notable in the field who looks much more like that image...
