A 19th Century Phrenology Bust by L. N. Fowler, English, c.1870, printed to the front 'PHRENOLOGY by L. N. FOWLER' cast ceramic head with labeling to the cranium, descriptive text to the rear and blue edging, height 29cm Phrenology was a pseudoscientific theory that gained popularity in the 19th century. The theory held that the shape and size of a person's skull could indicate their personality traits and mental abilities. Phrenology was developed by German physician Franz Gall in the late 18th century and was popularized by his student Johann Spurzheim. Phrenology gained widespread popularity in the 19th century and was used to justify racial and gender stereotypes. Proponents of phrenology believed that certain races and genders were inherently superior based on the shape of their skulls. However, phrenology was eventually discredited as a scientific theory, and by the end of the 19th century, it was largely abandoned. Despite its flaws, phrenology played an important role in the development of psychology and the study of the brain. Today, it is regarded as a curious artifact of a bygone era in the history of science.
