Anxious Man Comparing His Head to a Skull, Phrenology Scene
A seated man in a grey coat, red-heeled shoes and a fur-trimmed cap raises a hand to his head while he grips a small skull on a table draped in green cloth. Dark wooden walls, a green bottle, books and scattered skulls fill the cluttered interior.
