A palmistry manual by Edward Heron-Allen, illustrated by Rosamund Brunel Horsley, published in London by Ward, Lock & Bowden in 1892 for general readers interested in hand reading. The pictures show black silhouette figures of a ram, a winged Mercury-like messenger and a seated Neptune-like figure, set against a cream ground, plus fine-line studies of open hands that a designer could draw on for classical silhouette motifs or anatomical hand drawing.
