How to educate the feelings or affections, and bring the dispositions, aspirations, and passions into harmony with sound intelligence and morality

Bray, Charles, 1811-1884. [from old catalog], Sizer, Nelson · 1880 · New York, S. R. Wells & co. · 27 pictures

A phrenology and self-education treatise by Charles Bray and Nelson Sizer, published in New York by S. R. Wells & Co. in 1880 for general readers interested in character and the emotions. Its pictures are wood-engraved portraits of bearded men in dark coats against a tan paper ground, with fine hatching in the faces and clothing. A designer might take from them the period engraving texture, cross-hatched shading, and the formal half-length portrait format.
