Darwin Big Idea



Today is the start of a new exhibition at the Natural History Museum; Darwin 200

I was sent this book for providing a picture of the sculpture of Thomas Hardy by Eric Kennington for the start of chapter 10. It was published to coincide with Darwin 200 events in Great Britain.

Darwin was born in 1809. Celabrations have been jointly organised by NHM with the American Museum of Natural History in New York, the Museum of Science in Boston, the Field Museum in Chicago and the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto.
