Framed Print of The late Professor Phillips, 1874. Creator: R&E Taylor
The late Professor Phillips, 1874. Engraving from a photograph by Messrs. Elliott and Fry. The death of this eminent man of science...was occasioned by a fall on the staircase at All Souls College, Oxford; but he was seventy-three years of age. He became a geologist under the guidance of his uncle, Mr. William Smith, one of the first founders of English geology. From 1815 to 1824 John Phillips was employed with William Smith in mapping the strata of England and Wales, and in minutely noting their structure through twenty shires. He...[was] keeper of the museum of the Yorkshire Philosophical Society. In 1831, at York, and in 1832, at Oxford, he took an active part in the meetings of the British Association...He occupied the chair of geology at King's College, London, and in the University of Dublin. Among his best known works we may mention his Guide to Geology, his Palaeozoic Fossils of Cornwall, Devon, and West Somersetshire, his Geology of the Neighbourhood of Oxford, his Memoir of William Smith, his Life on the Earth, and the Treatise on Geology'...In 1858-9 he held the presidential chair of the Geological Society...He was learned in physics, astronomy, zoology, and most of the natural sciences'.
