• This is a ceramic reproduction of a phrenology head by ln fowler in a crackle glaze finish. The phrenology head was a tool of the trade for the victorian doctor's desk. Victorians once believed that certain areas in the brain were used for specific functions. Although phrenology is now considered obsolete, this still remains a highly interesting artifact and would make an unusual gift. This would look striking on a desk in a study. Please do have a look at my listings for some interesting items l n fowler quoted these famous words these are on the back of the bust. "for thirty years I have studied crania and living heads from all parts of the world, and have found in every instance that there is a perfect correspondence between the conformation of the healthy skull of an individual and his known characteristics. To make my observations available I have prepared a bust of superior form and marked the divisions of the organs in accordance with my research and varied experience." - l.N. Fowler.
