Can someone please help me identify this illustration?

You know I don't feel what your seeking even exists.

Oh crap and I don't even have drugs or alcohol to blame! Can chicken noodle soup cause a brain fart?
 
Try: Ernst Haeckel

Yes! Thank you! That's it exactly.

The one in the link is a copy of a Haeckel drawing done by G.J. Romanes.

Vielen Dank! :D
 
Haeckel did other drawings, nice examples are in: Kunstformen der Natur
 
It was about evolution though. :eek:

Yeah, but he (Heackel) tried something here.
He made it up, just to proof that evolution exists.

A human fetus goes trough all forms of animals with vertebra, he said.
For a short moment a human fetus would be a fish, then a bird, and so on, before it finally would be a human.
That's what I remember, might be that I'm being/doing him injustice now.

Yeah, it was pretty much quack science, but he wasn't all that far from the truth.
