Overall: 
Article looks fine, as would be expected from a GA, and the hook is interesting. I'm only wondering why you chose not to include the public domain picture of him, File:Capitein1742.jpeg? I'll approve the article anyway, just wanted to ask if you want to run with it, @Onegreatjoke :) –LordPeterII (talk) 21:25, 13 October 2022 (UTC)
