But how could I deny that I possess these hands and this body, and withal escape being classed with persons in a state of insanity, whose brains are so disordered and clouded by dark bilious vapors....

And these are two *interesting* art pieces. One for the subject matter and materials, the other for the category; never heard of a “protome” before. [And if I'd thought to photograph all the face plates I might have provided a bit more information about these art works for your enjoyment of these pictures, but cé st la vie.]
