Phrenology, in connection with the study of physiognomy
Phrenology, in Connection with the Study of Physiognomy is an 1833 Boston treatise by Johann Gaspar Spurzheim, edited by Nahum Capen, published by Marsh, Capen and Lyon for students of the science of character read from the head and face. The four lithographed profile and three-quarter head studies show men with varied hair, brows, and expressions, drawn in soft graphite-like tonal shading on cream paper, useful to a designer for period portrait studies, character types, and tonal rendering of faces.
