Curious Prints creates high quality reproductions of your favorite vintage art. The original art from "The Self Instructor in Phrenology and Physiology" by L. and Orson Fowler (1849) has been scanned and retouched to ensure the highest quality reproduction possible. The art is digitally printed on sustainably produced 100% cotton fiber archival paper. Each print is packaged in a sealed clear sleeve with matte backing and includes an info card with the history of the art.

ABOUT THE ART: Phrenology was a pseudoscientific study that claimed a person's personality was based on their head shape. This idea included personality aspects like "veneration" and "human nature." The larger that area of the head, the more of that trait someone would possess. However, the theory was largely discredited even in its own time. It's also worth mentioning it was used a scientific justification of racism.
