The 68 Thorne Miniature Rooms enable one to glimpse elements of European interiors from the late 13th century to the 1930s and American furnishings from the 17th century to the 1930s. Painstakingly constructed on a scale of one inch to one foot, these fascinating models were conceived by Mrs. James Ward Thorne of Chicago and constructed between 1932 and 1940 by master craftsmen according to her specifications.

I spent hours in the Chicago Art Museum viewing these. They are awesome. I now want to visit the remainder of the collection which are in museums in Palm Springs and Phoenix. Thanks for sharing this.
The attention to detail is remarkable. Beautiful Rooms...
