Sigismund Bacstrom

Sigismund Bacstrom (c.1750-1805) 〔() Harvard Divinity School. 2007. Introductory bio.〕 was a doctor, a surgeon, and a notable artist of the early Maritime Fur Trade.〔Henry, John Frazier. ''Early Maritime Artists of the Pacific Northwest Coast,1741-1841''. University of Washington Press. 1984〕 His drawings of the people and places he encountered on his voyages show the meticulous precision of a surgeon and scientist rather than the hand of a trained artist.〔Cole, Douglas. ''Sigismund Bacstrom's Northwest Coast Drawings and an Account of his Curious Career''. BC Studies Journal, Summer 1980〕 He was also a prominent author and translator of Alchemy and Rosicrucianism documents, many of which are still in print.〔''Bacstrom's Rosicrucian Society''. Hermetic Journal No.6 1979〕
==Early History==

Little is known of Bacstrom’s early history. His name is probably Swedish, but he is believed to have been born in Germany. He claimed to have been trained as a physician, surgeon and chemist at the University of Strausburg. He served as a surgeon in the Dutch navy from 1763 to 1770, then moved to England.
Bacstrom was employed by the famous naturalist Joseph Banks as a secretary from 1772 to 1775, accompanying the naturalist on a scientific exploration of Iceland. He was then engaged by Captain William Kent of the Royal Navy, a friend of Joseph Banks and collector for him, until 1779. Over the next decade he made at least six voyages as surgeon on merchant vessels, including voyages to Greenland (Spitsbergen), Guinea, and Jamaica.
In the late 1780‘s Bacstrom found a patron, whose name is unknown, who established him in an expensive laboratory in Marylebone to conduct research in natural philosophy. When his sponsor died in 1789, Bacstrom again found himself without work. He eventually received sponsorship to collect samples for Banks on a voyage around the world via Cape Horn, Nootka Sound, China and the East Indies that was to be undertaken by a group of London merchants as a commercial venture.〔Cole, Douglas. ''Sigismund Bacstrom's Northwest Coast Drawings and an Account of his Curious Career''. BC Studies Journal, Summer 1980〕
