WOLF, JOSEPH (1820-1899) , Anglo-
German
  artist, the son of a
German
  farmer, was
born
  in 1820 at Munstermaifeld, on the river Moselle, in the Rhine Province. In his boyhood he was an assiduous student cf
bird
  and animal
life
 , and showed a remark-able capacity as a draughtsman of natural
history
  subjects. His
powers
  were first recognized by
Professor
  Schlegel of the Leiden museum, who gave him employment as an illustrator. In 1848 he settled in London, where he remained till his death on the loth of
April
  1899. He made many drawings for the Zoological Society, and a very large number of illustrations for books on natural
history
  and on travel in various countries; but he also won a considerable success as a painter.
