Thomas Henry Huxley (1825-95) 1885 is a notable portrait painted by the distinguished British artist John Maler Collier. John Collier, a prominent figure in the Pre-Raphaelite movement, was renowned for his skill in capturing the essence of his subjects with meticulous detail and a keen sense of realism. This particular work, completed in 1885, depicts Thomas Henry Huxley, an eminent English biologist and anthropologist known for his vigorous advocacy of Charles Darwin's theory of evolution. Huxley, often referred to as "Darwin's Bulldog" for his staunch support of evolutionary theory, was a pivotal figure in the scientific community during the 19th century.

In the portrait, Huxley is presented with a dignified and contemplative demeanor, reflecting his intellectual stature and the profound impact of his scientific contributions. Collier's use of light and shadow, combined with his attention to the intricate details of Huxley's facial features and attire, serves to highlight the subject's character and the era's cultural context. The painting not only captures Huxley's physical likeness but also conveys a sense of his inner life and the intellectual rigor that defined his career.

The portrait is an exemplary representation of Collier's artistic prowess and his ability to convey the personality and significance of his subjects. It stands as a testament to Huxley's legacy in the scientific world and Collier's role in immortalizing prominent figures of his time through his art. The painting is held in high regard and continues to be a subject of interest for art historians and admirers of both Huxley's scientific achievements and Collier's artistic contributions.
