1863 Huxley Mans Place in Nature skulls

Desktop including two contrasting human skulls, a chimpanzee skull, and a first edition of Huxleys 1863 " Evidence as to Mans Place in Nature". (The famous illustration frontis showing a skeleton series from ape to man is visible). This was the first book to focus on the issue that Darwin had consciously omitted from his 1859 Origin of Species - the question of human evolution. Huxley was not afraid of controversy, but by the time his book was written there was already some general acceptance for the thesis that man evolved from apes. In the addendum to the book Huxley presented details of his acrimonious disagreement with Richard Owen over the structural uniqueness of the human brain (relating to the Hippocampus). Huxleys viewpoint was ultimately proved correct. Science Photo Library features Science and Medical images including photos and illustrations. © This image is Paul D. Stewart 2009.

EDITORS COMMENTS

This print showcases a fascinating glimpse into the world of scientific exploration in the 19th century. The image features a desktop adorned with two contrasting human skulls, alongside a chimpanzee skull and a first edition of Thomas Huxley's groundbreaking book, "Evidence as to Man's Place in Nature" from 1863. Huxley's work was revolutionary for its time, delving into the controversial topic that Charles Darwin had intentionally omitted from his seminal publication, "Origin of Species" in 1859 - the question of human evolution. By this point, there was already some level of acceptance regarding man's evolutionary connection to apes. The famous frontis illustration visible on the first edition depicts a series of skeletons transitioning from ape to man, symbolizing Huxley's argument for human evolution. In an addendum to his book, he passionately detailed his acrimonious disagreement with Richard Owen over the unique structure of the human brain, specifically relating to the Hippocampus. Ultimately, history proved Huxley correct in his viewpoint. This print not only captures these significant historical artifacts but also serves as a reminder of Huxley's fearless pursuit of knowledge and willingness to challenge established beliefs. It is truly an emblematic representation of humanity's relentless quest for understanding our origins and our place within nature itself.
