Zur Morphologie der Rassen-Schädel : einleitende Bemerkungen und Beiträge, ein Sendschreiben an ... Carl Ernst v. Baer / von Joh. Christ. Gustav Lucae.
Zur Morphologie der Rassen-Schädel is a German anatomical treatise by physician Johann Christian Gustav Lucae, published in Frankfurt am Main by H.L. Brönner between 1861 and 1864, addressed as an open letter to Karl Ernst von Baer on the morphology of racial skulls. Its plates are numbered engravings of human skulls shown in profile, with outlines drawn in fine ink strokes and suture lines marked, set against pale grey paper. A designer could draw on their clean, diagrammatic linework for scientific or specimen-style illustration, though the material is dated and the racial framing is one to treat critically.
