Description
Sir Charles Lyell, 1st Baronet, Scottish lawyer and geologist, 1875. In his highly influential Principles of Geology (1830-1833), Lyell (1797-1875) proposed that all geological features and phenomena were created by natural causes. He was a proponent of uniformitarianism, the philosophy of science that holds that physical processes that operated in the past are the same as those that can be observed today. Lyell was a friend and supporter of the scientific views of Charles Darwin. A print from an extra supplement to The Illustrated London News, 37th February 1875.
