Summary
Plates 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73
Plates 66 & 67: Head of Arrotino (the spy, the knife grinder, and so on), frontal view and profile. The transverse forehead lines, extending across the whole breadth of the brow, are not compatible with either the obliqueness or the curvature of the eyebrows due to the antagonism between m. frontalis and m. corrugator supercilii. The former muscle produces these transverse lines on the forehead and the latter this oblique and curved pattern of the eyebrow.
Plate 68: The same head as Plate 67 on which the curvature of the eyebrows has been adapted to the forehead lines, true to the action of m. frontalis (see Plates 7 and 8).
Plate 69: The same head as Plate 67 on which the forehead lines and the sculpting of the lateral portions of the brow have been adapted to the obliqueness and curvature of the eyebrow, true to the action of m. corrugator supercilii (see Plates 19, 20, 24, and 25).
Plate 70: Head of the Laocoön of Rome. The medial lines of the forehead are in perfect accord with the oblique and curved movements transmitted to the eyebrow by the contraction of m. corrugator supercilii, but the sculpting of the lateral portions of the forehead is impossible. […]
