This over 166 year old original antique handcolored lithograph is taken from a fragment of Lorenz Oken’s „Naturgeschichte für alle Stände“ (Natural History for all Social Ranks), published by Hoffmann´sche Verlagsbuchhandlung in Stuttgart/Germany, 1843. Oken studied medicine in Freiburg before transferring to Göttingen, w he qualified to lecture in 1805. He was summoned to Jena to take up the extraordinary professorship for medicine in 1807. He had, however, alreadydiscovered his special liking for philosophy and the sciences, and published a whole series of natural-philosophical and natural-historical works over the following years. In 1816 he was awarded the title of Honorary Doctorof Philosophy by the University of Gießen. In 1827, he was made a full professor of physiology at the University of Munich, but continued to involve himself in numerous disputes t and was forced to step down in 1832. The following year, he was offered a full professorship for natural history in Zurich which he held until his death.
