Details: Ernst Haeckel(1834-1919) was the German scientist who invented the words Darwinism and ecology. He was the first to suggest a missing link between ape and man and was proven correct when Java man was found in 1891. His book Art Forms in Nature (1904) is a landmark in the field of naturalist illustration. These drawings, with their graceful lines and tendency to idealize nature, are also considered a forerunner of the Art Nouveau movement. Indeed Haeckel's most lasting legacy may lie in the field of art. This is a 12 Month Calendar
