An original and illustrated physiological and physiognomical chart
A physiognomy chart published in Glasgow in 1873 by Dunn & Wright, printers, presenting profile and frontal portrait heads as examples of character types for a general reader. The pictures are wood-engraved head studies of men and one woman, showing facial features in strong outline with dense hatched shading, and a designer could take from them the vocabulary of engraved character portraiture with its cross-hatched tonal modelling and exaggerated profiles.
