Tolstoy was going to be my guess too, or possibly Dostoevsky. But the clerical robe is making me think not.

Why is it a (cropped) mirror image of Repin’s portrait, though?

Jaded was just warming you up by trying 'Johnners.'

It is Bill Frindall, the bearded wonder (now sadly RIP).

and the soubriquet was of course given by Brian Johnston - (probably a surfeit of cake and lunchtime drinks).
