Fine Art Print : Charles Darwin
Fine Art Prints from Science Photo Library
Charles Darwin
Portrait of Charles Robert Darwin (1809-1882) English naturalist and author of the Origin of Species aged about 65 years. He suggested that natural variation in a species creates a wide range of individual characteristics, some of which are more useful than others. The competition to survive in nature provides a driving force for evolution in the form of natural selection, a mechanism which weeds out those individuals possessing traits less suitable to the environment. The implications of his theory to mans own origins fuelled a bitter controversy with Christian orthodoxy. Black and white photograph 1874: coloured in 1995

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, beautifully colored in 1995, portrays the eminent Charles Robert Darwin. At approximately 65 years old, this portrait captures the essence of a man who forever changed our understanding of life on Earth. Darwin was an English naturalist and author renowned for his groundbreaking work, "The Origin of Species". His revolutionary theory suggested that within a species, natural variation gives rise to a wide array of individual characteristics. Some of these traits prove more advantageous than others in the competition to survive in nature's relentless embrace. This concept formed the basis for his theory of evolution through natural selection. However, Darwin's ideas challenged established Christian orthodoxy and ignited a fierce controversy regarding mankind's own origins. Despite facing vehement opposition from religious circles at the time, his theories have since become foundational principles in biology and evolutionary science. In this remarkable portrait, we witness Darwin as both scientist and philosopher—a man whose profound insights into the intricate workings of nature continue to shape our understanding today. As we gaze upon this image captured by Science Photo Library with reverence and admiration, we are reminded not only of Darwin's immense contributions but also how scientific discoveries can challenge long-held beliefs while propelling humanity forward on its quest for knowledge.
