| Description | Watercolour painting by unknown artist of a 'fossil fish in a nodule of Lias' in the collection of Dr Murray [probably Peter Murray], Scarborough, [c.1829-1839]. The specimen is probably Pachycormus curtus Agassiz, which was later drawn for inclusion in Louis Agassiz's 'Recherches sur les Poissons Fossiles' (1833-1843), Vol 2, Tab 59. |
| Provenance | Apart from the caption, there is no provenance for the drawing. It could, however, be connected to George Bellas Greenough's request in 1832, for Fellows to send in specimens and drawings of fossil fish to help Louis Agassiz's work on fossil ichthyology, published as 'Recherches sur les Poissons Fossiles' (1833-1844). |
