Alfred Wallace, caricature
Alfred Wallace (1823-1913). Caricature of the British naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace, showing him with a large nose and bushy facial hair. Wallace organised expeditions to the Amazon and Malaysia and was the first European to see orang-utans in the wild. Wallace collected many specimens and founded the study of the geographical distribution of animals (biogeography). He formulated (independent of Charles Darwin) the theory of natural selection as a mechanism for the origin of species. He and Darwin presented their results in a joint paper in 1858 before the Linnean Society

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Alfred Wallace, a prominent British naturalist from the 19th century. The caricature showcases his distinctive features, with a comically exaggerated large nose and bushy facial hair. Known for his groundbreaking contributions to science, Wallace organized expeditions to the Amazon and Malaysia, where he became the first European to observe orang-utans in their natural habitat. Wallace's passion for exploration led him to collect numerous specimens, laying the foundation for the study of biogeography – the geographical distribution of animals. Remarkably, independently from Charles Darwin, he formulated the theory of natural selection as a mechanism for species' origin. In 1858, both Wallace and Darwin presented their findings together in a joint paper before the prestigious Linnean Society. This illustration not only portrays Wallace's significant scientific achievements but also reflects his humorous side. It serves as a reminder that even great scientists possess an element of comedy within them. With this artwork capturing an iconic figure in evolutionary biology and botany history, it pays homage to Alfred Russel Wallace's immense contribution towards our understanding of nature's wonders.
