EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned Reverend William Buckland, a prominent figure in the field of paleontology during the 19th century. Painted by Thomas Phillips and masterfully engraved by Samuel Cousins in 1833, this artwork captures Buckland's influential presence as he stands proudly amidst his remarkable discoveries. In this image, Buckland can be seen holding the skull of a cave hyena, symbolizing his groundbreaking contributions to understanding prehistoric life. Alongside him are displayed some of his notable UK finds, including a nautiloid fossil and Ammonites (Arietites) bucklandi fossil. A detailed cave cross-section diagram serves as an educational backdrop, reflecting Buckland's passion for teaching. Buckland's eccentric personality shines through in this portrait; however, it was precisely this enthusiasm that brought the prehistoric world into prominence within Britain. His belief that he had found evidence of Noah's flood added an intriguing dimension to his work but also drew criticism from contemporaries like Charles Darwin. Despite any controversy surrounding him, Buckland was undeniably a skilled teacher and greatly benefited from consulting with William Conybeare. It is worth noting that later in life, he suffered from madness attributed to a tuberculous growth at the base of his skull. Paul D. Stewart's expertly captured photograph allows us to delve into the fascinating world of Reverend William Buckland—a pioneer whose discoveries forever changed our understanding of Earth's ancient past.
