ArtifactMetamorphosis Turn-Up Book, 1790-1820
Printed and handmade flap or turn-up books entice readers to interact with their pages. This handmade version from the late-18th to early-19th centuries presented a series of moral tales on movable pages. Unfortunately, the artist is unknown -- perhaps a young child made it as part of their education, or maybe a new parent crafted it for their children.
