OriginalPaul Fildes, son of the painter Luke Fildes - who painted this artwork - was a fairly notable scientist; he worked at the Royal Hospital Haslar during World War I, where he helped with the research on sulphonamides, and is perhaps most notable for his work on anthrax at Porton Down during World War II, leading to the development of weaponised anthrax
Reason
Paul Fildes, until just now, had no illustration. That's changed now, and with a painting by his highly notable artist father. Since there was no illustration, and thus changes are highly unlikely, I have... not waited a week.
