Sir Everard Home Portrait Natural Science
Bildnummer 11598354
| Sir Everard Home (1756-1832) contemporary engraving with later hand colouring. Home was the first president of the Royal College of Surgeons and studied under John Hunter (who married Home's sister). Home was entrusted with Hunter's unpublished manuscripts after his death in 1793 and was widely suspected of plagiarizing Hunter's work thereafter. Home destroyed many of Hunter's manuscripts which cast further suspicion. He was the first scientist to publish detailed reports and illustrations on Mary Annings fossil discoveries and so was in a position to be a founding father of paleontology. However he did a poor job,naming Ichthyosaurs 'Proteosaurus' in 1819 - a name that was widely ignored (he suggested affinities to Salamanders). Preference was given to Konig's unpublished suggestion of the name ichthyosaur. See other images in this collection | |
