1852 Portrait Henry De La Beche geologist
Portrait of Henry Thomas De La Beche (1796-1855) by Thomas Herbert Maguire lithographed by M&H Hanhart. Part of the Portraits of the Honarary members of the Ipswich Museum collection published in 1852. A geologist famous for his humorous representations of early fossil finds and fellow geologists. Pioneering work with Conybeare on prehistoric marine reptiles; ichthyosaurs and plesiosaurs. He lived in Lyme Regis in his youth and is often romantically linked with Mary Anning who was two years his junior (she remained unmarried). There is no clear evidence for the romance. He drew 'Duria antiquior'- 'of life in a more ancient Dorset' featuring reconstructions of her many fossil finds. He encouraged it being turned into a lithographic print by George Scharf and for it to be sold at £2 10s with the proceeds going directly to Mary Anning. Founded the Museum of Practical Geology
