Description
"Ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny"
- Ernst Haeckel
Ernst Haeckel was a fascinating 19th century German zoologist whose scientific theories have generally been discredited, but who produced thousands of beautiful illustrations, including many of radiolarians, which are microscopic protozoa with beautiful, intricate structures. You can see many of them here:
