Box in the Form of a Book

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a box in the form of a book titled "Box in the Form of a Book" by an unknown artist. The box is rectangular with a flat top and a flat bottom, and it is standing upright. The box has a reddish-brown background. There are two cherubs on the box; one above the other. The cherub on top appears to be playing a horn. The cherub below is holding flowers or leaves in their left hand and a torch in their right. The box has a decorative border around the edges, which appears to be made of metal. The border consists of interlocking loops and swirls. The box appears to be made of a textured material, possibly fabric or leather, and has a raised design on the top. The background of the image is white.
