Length, date, hook, qpq checks out, no close paraphrase found. @
Kusma, why not add an image to the nomination? --

Thank you for the review @
Soman! The images we have are not too great (the first one is from a few hundred years after his death, so a bit questionable whether it is a true likeness, and the second one is quite dark). If we were short on DYK nominations with images I'd consider adding one, but generally the opposite is true, and I don't think either of the images here is likely to make it onto the Main Page. If I don't add one now, it makes it easier for the prep builder later, when they don't have to explicitly deny my (very weak) wish for an image. —
