When I was little, I remember my grandmother took me to the Art Institute often and I loved the miniature rooms donated by Mrs. Thorne in the 1930s. I hadn’t seen that part of the museum for years. Since the Art Institute’s newsletter mentioned the rooms were decorated for Christmas, I took them in today. I don’t think you get the charm of their size from these photos.

I enjoy looking at these rooms of another time. Always so interesting to see how people lived then.
