Normal or log-normal distribution? A nice paper by Limpert et al.:
E. Limpert, W. A. Stahel, and M. Abbt, BioScience, 51, (2001) 341–352, doi: 10.1641/0006-3568(2001)051
Note that 2D images of 3D objects gives the distribution of the measured projections and not necessarily the distribution of the real particles/grains (Discussion video for EBSD).
