EDITORS COMMENTS
In this monochrome photograph, Benjamin Waterhouse Hawkins (1807-1889) is seen in his studio, surrounded by the impressive models of prehistoric reptiles that he created for the Crystal Palace Exhibition in Sydenham, London, in 1854. Hawkins, an English scientist, artist, and illustrator, was a pioneer in the field of palaeontology and the study of reptiles, which were then collectively referred to as Sauropsida. The Sauropsida, or "lizard-footed" group, includes all living reptiles and their extinct ancestors. Hawkins' groundbreaking work in reconstructing these ancient creatures from fossil evidence was a significant contribution to the scientific community during the Victorian era. In the photograph, Hawkins is shown standing next to a staff, likely used as a measuring tool for his intricately detailed models. The room is filled with various stages of completed and in-progress models, each one meticulously crafted to reflect the latest scientific understanding of the animals' anatomy and appearance. The atmosphere in the studio is one of intense focus and dedication, with Hawkins at the center, directing the efforts of his team. The photograph offers a glimpse into the world of Benjamin Waterhouse Hawkins and the remarkable work he accomplished during the 19th century. His contributions to the fields of science, art, and the public's understanding of prehistoric life continue to be celebrated and appreciated today.
