Framed Print of Joseph Banks, English Naturalist
Sir Joseph Banks, 1st Baronet (February 24, 1743 - June 19, 1820) English naturalist and botanist. Banks made his name on the 1766 natural history expedition to Newfoundland and Labrador. He took part in Cook's first great voyage (1768-71), visiting Brazil, Tahiti, New Zealand, and Australia. He held the position of President of the Royal Society for over 41 years. He advised King George III on the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, and by sending botanists around the world to collect plants, he made Kew the world's leading botanical gardens. He advocated British settlement in New South Wales and colonization of Australia, as well as the establishment of Botany Bay as a place for the reception of convicts, and advised the British government on all Australian matters. He is credited with introducing the eucalyptus, acacia, and the genus named after him, Banksia, to the Western world. Approximately 80 species of plants bear his name. He was knighted in 1795. After 1805 he practically lost the use of his legs and had to be wheeled to his meetings in a chair, but his mind remained as vigorous as ever. He died in 1820 at the age of 77. © New York Public Library / Science Source
