In both Plates the figures are reduced according to the scale appended : the basis of 

 the engravings was afforded by the ' Photographs ' executed, under my direction, by

 defects of proportion and indefinite outline incident to Photographic impressions have 

 been rectified from the skeletons themselves in the engravings.
