About the Item
Peter The Wild Boy
Peter the Wild Boy, Found in the woods of Haemlin', 1821. Portrait of Peter the Wild Boy (c1713-1785) who was found in 1725 living an entirely feral existence in the woods near Hamelin, the town of Pied Piper legend, in Germany. He walked on all fours, and could not be taught to speak. He is now believed to have suffered from Pitt-Hopkins Syndrome, a rare genetic disorder. Lithograph after a stipple engraving by Robert Cooper from Henry Wilson and James Caulfield’s Book of Wonderful Characters, Memoirs and Anecdotes, of Remarkable and Eccentric Persons in all ages and countries, John Camden Hotten, Piccadilly, London, 1869.
