Eduard Suess, Austrian geologist, c 1900.

AUSTRIA - SEPTEMBER 09: Photogravure after an original drawing by Cossmann, c 1900. Suess (1831-1914) studied geology in Vienna, later becoming Professor of Geology at Vienna University (1857-1901). He was the first to suggest that there had once been a land bridge between the southern continents, basing his conclusions upon the fossil fern Glossopteris, which is found throughout India, South America, South Africa, Australia, and Antarctica. His theory of a supercontinent led to modern theories of continental drift. He wrote his most famous work �Das Antlitz de Erde� (�The Face of the Earth�) in three volumes between 1885-1909. From a collection of portraits of scientists published by Photographische Gesellschaft, Berlin, c 1910. (Photo by SSPL/Getty Images)
