Pearl reveals the way that physiognomy, the study of facial features and their relationship to character, shaped the way that people understood one another and presented themselves in 19th-century Britain. By showing how physiognomy gave people permission to judge others, Pearl holds up a mirror both to Victorian times and our own.
