John Cleveley version

[edit]

I seriously doubt that "most of these paintings seem to go back to an original by John Cleveley the Younger, painted in 1784" if it was the only painting that depicted Cook as being an aggressor. It sounds like the article is trying to say that the painting was the basis of most later works which goes against the fact that all others show Cook as a peacemaker and that Cleveley's version was not even widely known about to the point that it disappear for nearly 200 years without anyone caring.--KAVEBEAR (talk) 07:27, 21 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
