Sleepy Hollow Cardinal and Cage Thaumatrope

Description

Sleepy Hollow Thaumatrope

Thaumatropes are an optical toy devised in the 19th century, consisting of a disc with a different image on either side, which merge as one when rapidly rotated.

I have created replicas of the one seen on Tim Burton’s film Sleepy Hollow, of a red cardinal and an empty cage. Simply spin the disc using the strings and it will seem as if the cardinal is inside the cage. Crafted from card and thread (thread colour may vary)

Thaumatrope will arrive in an organza bag

Brightest Blessings!
