Skull in profile beside a classical head, from Charles Bell's anatomy of expression
A fine engraved line drawing shows a human skull in profile at left, resting on a small square block, beside a classical head with curled hair rendered in delicate hatching. Faded printed text from the page shows behind both figures, setting bone structure against the sculpted features of the face.
