Scientific Amusement: The Paper Wheel (1883) This 1883 wood engraving, "The Paper Wheel," illustrates a physics experiment from the English translation of Gaston Tissandier’s Les Récréations Scientifiques. Tissandier, a French scientist and balloonist, believed "wonder" should lead to rational inquiry. The diagram demonstrates principles of motion and air resistance, part of an 800-page curriculum designed to turn domestic spaces into laboratories. By using household items to recreate physical phenomena, Tissandier sought to make complex science accessible and engaging for the curious amateur.
