Lev Berg, Russian biologist
Lev Semyonovich Berg (1876-1950), Russian geographer and biologist and founder of the nomogenesis theory of evolution. Berg collected large volumes of samples and data, mainly of fish, to challenge Darwins theories. In its place, he suggested that evolution proceeded by a series of mass mutations that were directed by internal and external forces

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Lev Berg, a prominent Russian biologist and geographer of the 20th century. With his distinguished white beard and intense gaze, Berg exudes wisdom and intellect. Known for his groundbreaking theories in evolution, he challenged Darwin's ideas by proposing the concept of nomogenesis - that evolution occurs through a series of mass mutations influenced by both internal and external forces. Berg's contribution to science cannot be understated. He dedicated his life to collecting vast volumes of samples and data, primarily focusing on fish species. Through meticulous research and observation, he sought to redefine our understanding of how life on Earth evolves. As a respected scientist in Soviet Russia, Berg left an indelible mark on the field of biology. His theory of nomogenesis sparked debates among scholars worldwide, reshaping the discourse around evolutionary processes. In this monochrome portrait captured with precision by Science Photo Library, we are reminded not only of Berg's significant scientific achievements but also his enduring legacy as a pioneering thinker who dared to challenge established beliefs. This print serves as a timeless tribute to an extraordinary man whose work continues to shape our understanding of the natural world today.
