There's so many photos and videos of men from the early 1900s, even his closest relatives and generals. How come he is the only one with neither?? He died in 1920, more than enough time to get some images taken. He's only got one photo published I think in some British newspaper.

They would know him either way. He was the head of a state and army. Hard to hide at that point.
