For studying Capablanca because he has that cute playing style and thinking process.  He said "white wins in one move" when looking at a position then placed the king all the way over the other side of the board to demonstrate an unstoppable plan.  Big plan = convert a passed pawn little plans = things that make that more viable such as spreading out the opponent's defense, improving piece positions by offering exchanges that would lead to hopeless (for the opponent) pawn endings, etc.

Robert James Fischer and Mikhail Tal

Only 1 right?.. Fischer then.

I assume the OP is talking more about the personalities of the GMs than anything else, not how they performed on the board, so with my restricted knowledge, I suppose it's Capablanca, or, among the living ones, Anand (with Radjabov as an alternative choice).

If so:

Robert Jamas Fischer

If not:

Anand or Nakamura

why anand and nakamura over magnus

this is about your favourite GM not the best. Svidler and Ivanchuck are both great.

Fischer, Kasparov, and Carlsen. I also really like Morphy even though the title GM didn't exist back then. If it was around back in his day I think he would have been though.

By some accounts, in the St. Petersburg 1914 chess tournament, the title "Grandmaster" was formally conferred by Russian Tsar Nicholas II, who had partially funded the tournament. The Tsar reportedly awarded the title to the five finalists: Emanuel Lasker, José Raúl Capablanca, Alexander Alekhine, Siegbert Tarrasch, and Frank Marshall.
