EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history when phrenology, the study of bumps on the skull to determine personality traits and mental abilities, was at its peak. The image depicts a Phrenology Lecture taking place in 1890, with an audience eagerly listening to the speaker as they delve into this mysterious and controversial practice.
Phrenology was considered a paranormal science during this time, with many believing that by examining the shape and size of different areas of the skull, one could gain insight into a person's character and potential. This lecture would have been filled with intrigue and curiosity as people sought to understand themselves and others through this unconventional method.
The historical significance of this print is undeniable, offering a glimpse into the beliefs and practices of society over a century ago. It serves as a reminder of how ideas about human nature have evolved over time, shedding light on both the scientific advancements made since then and the superstitions that once held sway.
Mary Evans Picture Library has preserved this fascinating piece of history for us to explore and reflect upon. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a time when phrenology captured imaginations and sparked debates about what it means to be human.
