DESCRIPTION

[url=http://www.istockphoto.com/file_search.php?action=file&lightboxID=3686845][img]http://thebrainstormlab.com/banners/ami_banner.jpg[/img][/url]This is a stipple/engraved illustrated plate of a human head showing the lines of Phrenology-- the now defunct field of study, once considered a science, by which the personality traits of a person were determined by "reading" bumps and fissures in the skull. This image was shot from the 1884 printing of THE PRACTICAL HOME PHYSICIAN ~ A POPULAR GUIDE FOR THE HOUSEHOLD MANAGEMENT OF DISEASE.
