Portrait of Charles Darwin, British naturalist
Charles Darwin. Engraving of Charles RobertDarwin (1809-1882), British naturalist, in oldage. Darwin studied medicine and theology but hisinterest was in natural history. He was anaturalist on a five year voyage around the worldduring 1831-36. This provided the fieldwork forhis book, Origin of Species (1859). His theoryof natural selection suggested that naturalvariation in a species creates a wide range ofindividual traits, some more useful than others.Competition to survive causes favourable traits tosurvive and so a species evolves. Though not thefirst person to suggest evolution, Darwin was thefirst to construct a proper scientific argument toprove it

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic "Portrait of Charles Darwin" a British naturalist who revolutionized the field of evolutionary biology. Engraved during his old age, this portrait captures the wisdom and depth of knowledge that Darwin possessed throughout his life. Charles Robert Darwin (1809-1882) was not only a naturalist but also an accomplished botanist, biologist, zoologist, and discoverer. His insatiable curiosity led him to embark on a five-year voyage around the world from 1831 to 1836, where he meticulously studied various species and their habitats. This extensive fieldwork provided the foundation for his groundbreaking book, "Origin of Species" published in 1859. Darwin's theory of natural selection proposed that within a species, there exists natural variation resulting in a wide range of individual traits. Some traits prove more advantageous than others in terms of survival and reproduction. As competition ensues among individuals with these favorable traits, they are more likely to survive and pass on their characteristics to future generations. Over time, this process leads to the evolution and adaptation of species. While others had previously hinted at the concept of evolution, it was Darwin who constructed a comprehensive scientific argument supported by evidence from various disciplines. His work laid the groundwork for modern evolutionary biology. This remarkable print serves as both an homage to Charles Darwin's immense contributions and as an inspiration for those intrigued by science's ability to unravel nature's mysteries.
