Physiognomy is the interpretation of outward appearance especially the features of the face to discover a person's predominant temper and character. Physiognomy has also been used as a kind of divination and is often associated with astrology. o Cocl�s like others before and after him tried to create a science out of something each of us does from time to time: judge a person by his or her facial characteristics. Physiognomists like Cocl�s are wont to say things such as "people with snub noses are vain untruthful unstable unfaithful and seducers." Cocles extended the pseudo scientific analysis to palm reading writing one of the most enduring and influential text on Chiromancy. ; German Language; 24mo - over 5" - 5�" tall; OCCULT NECROMANCY SORCERY PHYSIOLOGY CHIROMANCY PALM READING SATANISM ASTROLOGY DIVINATION RELIGION MAGIC antiquit� contrat v�lin document manuscrit papier Antike Brief Pergament Dokument Manuskript Papier oggetto d'antiquariato atto velina documento manoscritto carta antig�edad hecho vitela documento manuscrito papel. .

Francesco Bartolozzi Ra 1727 - 1815 Was An Italian Engraver Whose Most Productive Period Was Spent In London. Bartolozzi Was Born In Florence. He Was Originally Destined To Follow The Profession Of His Father A Gold- And Silver-Smith But He Manifested So Much Skill And Taste In Designing That He Was Placed Under The Supervision Of Two Florentine Artists Including Ignazio Hugford And Giovanni Domenico Ferretti Who Instructed Him In Painting. After Devoting Three Years To That Art He Went To Venice And Studied Engraving. He Particularly Admired The Work Of Joseph Wagner. His First Productions In Venice Were Plates In The Style Of Marco Ricci Zuccarelli And Others While Working For Wagner Which Began To Draw Attention. He Then Moved For A Short Time To Rome Where He Completed A Set Of Engravings Representing Frescoes At Grottaferrata By Domenichino Depicting The Life Of St Nilus. He Soon Returned To Venice And Left For London In 1764. He Lived In London For Nearly Forty Years. He Produced An Enormous Number Of Engravings Including Clytie After Annibale Carracci And Of The Virgin And Child After Carlo Dolci.
