    I can't translate it, but I can tell you who it is. Chiang Kai-Shek, leader of the Republic of China. The Republic of China started in mainland China and later moved to Taiwan.
    This portrait would have been taken in his pre-Taiwan years when he was a general.

    She is.:) And she will probably take her mask off every now and then. She just wants to go to the ball now.

    Definitely Chiang Kai Shek. Writing on left side top to bottom Republic of China, May 1956, Chiang Kai Shek. Cannot read the writing on the right side.
