A sketch of the natural laws of man, written by the late phrenologist Johann Spurzheim and published in Glasgow in 1844 by J. & G. Goyder for readers of the Phrenological Institution. The plate shows four head and bust diagrams in profile, front and back views, each divided into numbered cranial regions with small faculty labels, drawn in fine ink line on a pale ochre ground. A designer could take the clean numbered-zone diagram style as a model for schematic anatomy or labelled infographics.
