He also designed the front cover for the journal of the Danish Ornithological Society and worked on several Danish banknotes.
Scientific Contributions and Writing
Beyond his work as an artist, Heilmann was a significant figure in the study of bird evolution. In 1926, he published The Origin of Birds, an English book that expanded upon his earlier Danish papers. His research included artistic depictions of Archaeopteryx and Proavis. In 1940, he published Univers og traditionen, a book regarding Darwinism and arguments against religious ideas.
