This is Theodore Beza. He was Calvin's successor. He looks eerily like Calvin yes but he was of another spirit that Calvin has gotten accused of for centuries. Calvin himself had a Biblical perspective on election, predestination and sovereignty; whereas Beza was extreme & actually a Catholic in Protestant's clothing. He is why the true church has been so divided on these doctrines for centuries & this was done with intent to divide us. He tweaked Calvin's writings around to sound like; the 5 point teaching was Calvin but it wasn't. Every writer has a "writer's voice." Calvin's was humble and Biblical in understanding & teaching whereas Beza was ghoulish & cruel. Some is just a word removed, added or moved which can alter the entire context & that's the point. He is responsible for the deception of millions throughout history. 3 point Calvinism is where Calvin was & those who are in that mindset are actually Calvinists & just comprehend those doctrines easier than the ones Arminians understand easier. Iron could sharpen iron but thanks to him it rarely does. 5 point Calvinism isn't Calvinism but "Bezaism" instead. It's demonic and very dangerous! Ask God to help you separate what Calvin said & what Beza said if you read his writings.
