In Miniatura: Modelli e Mobili in legno
Over two hundred precious wooden models of antique and modern “furniture in miniature” offer an overview of the history of furniture between the seventeenth and twentieth centuries, between artistic craftsmanship and industrial design. Surprising for the refined details, materials, decorations and variety. Each miniature has a different story: artist’s sketches for cabinet makers in the eighteenth century, “sample” pieces to be shown to customers in the nineteenth century or curious collectable toy models for dollhouses.
