William Bally (c. 1799 – c. 1856) was a Swiss sculptor active in Manchester, United Kingdom.
==Life==
Born in Switzerland, in 1831 he was making small phrenological busts supervised by Johann Caspar Spurzheim;〔(''Johns Hopkins Magazine'' )〕 he had been associated with Spurzheim and this project at least from 1829.〔''The Phrenological Journal and Miscellany'', Volume 7 (1832), p. 285; (Google Books ).〕 He came to England and employed George Holyoake in Birmingham during the 1830s.〔Roger Cooter, ''The Cultural Meaning of Popular Science: phrenology and the organization of consent in nineteenth-century Britain'' (1984), p. 274; (Google Books ).〕 At this time he was an associate of George Combe. The relationship with Holyoake ended badly, on Holyoake's account, Bally moving to Manchester and not making a promised cast of his head.〔Joseph McCabe, ''Life and Letters of George Jacob Holyoake'' (1908), pp. 28–30; (archive.org ).〕
In 1841 Bally made casts of inscriptions on Manx crosses, and later sold them to the antiquarian Henry Dryden.〔Philip Moore Kermode, ''Manx Crosses or The Inscribed and Sculptured Monuments of the Isle of Man from about the End of the Fifth to the beginning of the Thirteenth Century''. Volume 1. (2005 reprint of 1907 work), p. 8; (Google Books ).〕 He ran a phrenological gallery in the 1840s in Manchester, and contributed phrenological busts to the Great Exhibition of 1851.〔(''Mapping Sculpture'' page ).〕 He took part in a demonstration of hypnosis by James Braid in 1844.〔Donald Robertson (editor), ''The Discovery of Hypnosis: The Complete Writings of James Braid, the Father of Hypnotherapy'' (2009), p. 273; (Google Books ).〕
