These images are from Animated Anatomies, a show of anatomical flap-books at Duke University (ending July 17th). These books invite the viewer to participate in a visual autopsy by lifting up successive flaps, each one revealing different anatomical parts. The examples above (except for the black and white one, 17th century) are from the 19th century, the “golden age” of anatomical flip books.
