*The figures marked (1) are copied from engraved portraits in general circulation; those marked (2) are from modelled busts-the others are taken from real skulls, or from casts from nature, in the collection of the Phrenological Society. The whole figures were intended to be drawn to a scale; but the engraver has neglected this in the case of those having a black ground. The outlines, however, accurately exhibit the forms, which are represented as they exist in the originals, without foreshortening. This figure was copied by the engraver, by mistake, from an old plate, put into his hands merely to show the manner in which the brain was to be represented. The minute details are not perfectly correct, and the figure is too long; but it exhibits the general appearance of the parts with sufficient accuracy for the purpose mentioned on p. 65. |
