Geoffrey of Saint-Hilaire 1772-1844
French naturalist
He collects many zoological observations (especially on reptiles and fish).
He has been interested in mummified sacred animals for thirty centuries. These animals are intact.
They kept all their bones, all their hair. We realize that they are perfectly similar to those of today. This collection of mummies will revive the debate on the fixity of species, which opposes Cuvier to Lamarck.
Engraving very popular with cabinets of curiosities.
