Jeremy Bentham is one of England's best known philosophers, living between 1748 and 1832. Prior to his death, Bentham had wanted his auto-icon to use his real head, however complications with the mummification of his body did not allow this.
His figure sits with a wax head and body, but with genuine hair from Bentham's head, at University College London.
