Humpty-Dumpty
Moscow: Emil Goozairow, 2025. Goozairow is a Russian artist who paints and draws, produces movies, and creates exceptional handmade books that are printed on rare types of paper and published in limited editions. His techniques create unique designs that often are made with natural materials alone or in combination with relief decorations made from metal, polymeric clay, or 3-D printing. He creates books that he describes as "pop up," “kinetic carousel," “liporello” or “3D origami.” He also writes fairy tales, stories and mystical scenes.
This mini pop-up book is a charming and colorful open edition of this well-known children's rhyme. The book has a hexagonal shape, with an illustration of Humpty Dumpty on the front cover and a magnificent albeit unexplained castle on the back cover. As they are opened, each of the four double-sided pages unfolds to show a picture of Humpty and lines from the text of the poem as he climbs the wall, falls from it, and all the king's men could not put him together again. In fine condition. Measures 2 inches by 2 inches. ARTB/090225.
