Metal Prints from Science Photo Library
Carl Vogt, German naturalist
Carl Christoph Vogt (1817-1895), German naturalist. Vogt published a number of notable works on physiology, geology and zoology. In 1842 he discovered the mechanism of apoptosis, programmed cell death, by studying the development of the tadpole of the midwife toad. Charles Darwin mentions his support for the theory of evolution in The Descent of Man, and Selection in Relation to Sex (1871). Vogt was also involved heavily in politics. He was a member of the German Frankfurt Parliament of 1848-9 but this led to him being destitute two years later due to his adopting socialist ideas. A refugee in Geneva, he was naturalised Genevois and elected to the National Council

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Carl Vogt, a renowned German naturalist whose contributions to the fields of physiology, geology, and zoology left an indelible mark on scientific knowledge. Born in 1817 and passing away in 1895, Vogt's extensive body of work included notable discoveries such as unraveling the mechanism of apoptosis - programmed cell death - through his study of the midwife toad's tadpole development. His support for Charles Darwin's theory of evolution earned him a mention in Darwin's seminal work "The Descent of Man, and Selection in Relation to Sex" published in 1871. Beyond his scientific endeavors, Vogt was deeply involved in politics. As a member of the German Frankfurt Parliament from 1848-9, he championed socialist ideas that ultimately led to his destitution two years later. Seeking refuge in Geneva, Switzerland, Vogt became a naturalized Genevois citizen and was elected to the National Council. This monochrome portrait captures him as an adult with an air of wisdom and determination befitting his multifaceted career. With this print from Science Photo Library, we are reminded not only of Vogt's significant contributions but also his resilience amidst personal challenges. It serves as a testament to the intersection between science and politics during the dynamic landscape of the 19th century while paying homage to one man who made lasting impacts across multiple disciplines.
