[Berlin] c.1924-1930.
Raschig collected the hand prints between the 1870s and 1930s for a study into what the lines and shapes of hands could reveal about a person's character.
Palm readers believe that every person's hands has a series of 'lines' and 'mounts' which reveal their personality traits and even predict their future.
Raschig published her study in a 1931 book Hand und Persönlichkeit (Hand and Personality) which is still used today.
Separate prints of each hand, both signed and dated 24.06.22.
