Framed Print of Phrenology busts
Phrenology busts, side view. Phrenology was a popular pseudoscience of the nineteenth century. The basis for the theory lay in a misplaced belief that a persons character and mental faculties effected the shape of their head. It was thought that this was because the skull became modified over the different functional areas of the cortex of the brain. Practitioners of the technique claimed that they could read a person, that is assess their personality, by feeling the bumps on their head. In this bust, a wide range of personality traits are mapped across the various bones that comprise the skull. Busts by L.N. Fowler. Science Photo Library features Science and Medical images including photos and illustrations. © MARK SYKES/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY
