Professor Thomas Henry Huxley, 1880. Artist: Lock & Whitfield
Professor Thomas Henry Huxley, 1880. Between the years 1847-1850 he was the assistant surgeon aboard HMS Rattlesnake off the eastern and northern coasts of Australia. In 1855 he was appointed Professor of Natural History at the Royal School of Mines, and was an authority in the study of fossils, particularly fishes and reptiles. He was a supporter of Darwinism, and was in direct opposition to Richard Owen. His work Mans Place in Nature, which was published in 1863, caused much interest in Europe and America. It was Huxley who devised the word agnostic, to describe his religious beliefs. From Men of Mark: a gallery of contemporary portraits of men distinguished in the Senate, the Church, in science, literature and art, the army, navy, law, medicine, etc. Photographed from life by Lock and Whitfield, with brief biographical notices by Thompson Cooper. (Conducted by G. C. Whitfield.) (London, 1876-1883)
