The Geological Society of London needs your help (reed more)

Here you find the digital versin of Louis Agassiz Recherches sur les poissons fossiles. Volume 3.

Sponsor-a-Fish!

Agassiz 3 The Library has launched a new project to conserve and digitise one of the most important, if lesser known, collections housed in the Geological Society’s Archive: the fossil fish portfolio of Louis Agassiz (1807-1873).

Agassiz gained international recognition as the leading figure on fossil ichthyology after the publication of the five volume Recherches sur les Poissons Fossiles, lavishly illustrated with 400 lithographic plates of fish (1833-1843). In 1836 he was awarded the Geological Society’s Wollaston Medal.

Comprising nearly 2,000 watercolours and drawings, these images of fossil fish, dating from the 1830s-1860s, were copied from private and public collections around Europe, principally by the German artist Joseph Dinkel. For many years the drawings were kept in a trunk in the Museum and later in different places around the Society. We would now like to make them accessible to future generations of researchers by conserving and digitising the entire collection.

How you can help


If you would like to help the Library and Archive in this project, a small contribution of £20 will allow us to carefully clean, conserve and digitise one fish. The names of all sponsors will be included in a roll of honour in the Archive and on our website.

Contributions can be sent by cheque made payable to ‘The Geological Society’, or call 020 7432 0999 to pay by card.

About the Collection


The Society's collection comprises three large donations. The first came from Lord Francis Egerton, later 1st Earl of Ellesmere, who had purchased 1200 drawings and paintings directly from Agassiz, primarily to provide the Swiss palaeontologist with the financial assistance to continue his work. Egerton donated these drawings to the Society in 1843.

The second donation came from Agassiz himself. In 1858 he gave the 568 sheets of drawings and paintings which were still in his possession, most of which were unpublished.

The final donation came from the Earl of Enniskillen in 1876 and includes images from Agassiz’s follow up work Monographie sur les Poissons Fossiles du Vieux Grès Rouge (1844-1845).
