The picture at the website is accurate. It was actually from a portrait of him taken while he was in prison for “treason” described in the article.
(He was sending charity money to Jews in (then) Palestine... which had to go through Ottoman Turk- hands.... painted as treason by, ironically, non-hasidic sects of Jews who were against the Rabbi’s philosophy. What’s new— Jews upset with each other...)

You’re thinking of Nachman of Breslov, whose grave in Uman, Ukraine, is visited by tens of thousands every year.

His followers are Breslov Hassidim. The have a large and friendly internet presence.

Schneur Zalman of Liadi’s followers are Chabad-Lubavitchers. They’re everywhere!
