During the late 19th Century, the central hub of paleontological research shifted from Europe to the United States. New discoveries made in the 1860's demonstrated the Richard Owen's vision of dinosaurs as bulky mammal-like quadrupeds was incorrect. The relatively complete remains of Hadrosaurus and Laelaps (later Dryptosaurus) revealed a new image of slender bipedal dinosaurs. Benjamin Waterhouse Hawkins, creator of the famous Crystal Palace sculptures, travelled to the US and was commissioned to design a Paleozoic museum that would stand in Central Park, New York. Unfortunately, this project was shut down by corrupt politician William Tweed.
Later, Hawkins produced a series of paintings now on display at Princeton University, which showed very lanky, almost anthropomorphic visions of Hadrosarus and Laelaps. Later, the activities of Cope and Marsh brought to light an array of spectacular new finds, included iconic animals such as Allosaurus, Brontosaurus and Triceratops. However, little art was produced by the duelling scientists, due to their rather elitist views on science. It wouldn't be until the late 1890's that museums acknowledged the power of dinosaurs to educate and bring in commercial investment. Soon, the thunder lizards would be catapulted into the public consciousness.
