Honoré Gabriel Riqueti, Comte de Mirabeau (1749-1791), French revolutionary, writer, diplomat, freemason, journalist and French politician at the General Assembly 1789 - 1791. A noble, he had been involved in numerous scandals before the start of the Revolution in 1789 that had left his reputation in ruins. Nonetheless, he rose to the top of the French political hierarchy in the years 1789–1791 and acquired the reputation of a voice of the people. A successful orator, he was the leader of the moderate revolutionaries by favouring a constitutional monarchy built on the model of Great Britain.
