Topic: Art intended for a Doll's House, and related art

I was watching a video of an art gallery exhibition, and, thinking that with all that space one could never do such a display in an ordinary home.

I wondered if one could have a scale model of an art gallery.

If so what scale?

I found the following website that has scale models of pictures intended for use in a doll's house, thje scale being 1 to 12.

So scale models of pictures of quite a size.

Amongst them are some nice pictures, and also some empty frames, so one could produce one's own art.

A scale of 1 to 12 is 1 inch to one foot, which is 25.4 millimetres to the foot.

OO scale widely used for model railways in 4 millimetres to the foot.

Only in the UK. It seems to be virtually unknown in other parts of the world.

There is a Hornby website which has a definition of gauges and scales
