What's interesting about the Hyrtl Skull Collection is the collection was built to counter the claims of phrenologists by showing just how varied Caucasian skulls across Europe really could be. Noble, but if you are going to build a skull collection, you are going to use dubious means to collect them.
It is something else to see that many skulls looking back at you. Reminds me of the Crypt of the Capuchin Monks (walls covered in skulls) with the haunting inscription "What you are now, we once were; what we are now, you shall be." Stays with you.
