Louis Agassiz, master of naturalist illustration
Louis Agassiz, a major figure in paleontology and ichthyology in the 19th century, profoundly influenced how science visually represents extinct fauna.

Influenced by European naturalist schools and the museological standards of his time, he published illustrated collections that served as models for curiosity cabinets and academies.
