EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Great House English dolls house" from the 18th century, believed to have originated from either Cheshire or Lancashire. Crafted with wood, this exquisite dollhouse is a testament to the intricate artistry of the English School during that era. Previously part of Vivien Greene's esteemed collection housed in Oxford's Rotunda Dolls House Museum, this remarkable piece was auctioned and dispersed in 1998. The photograph captures its timeless beauty and historical significance as it now resides in a private collection. Every detail within this miniature dwelling tells a story - from the delicate furniture to the meticulously designed rooms. This dollhouse served not only as a game but also as an immersive play experience for its owner. It allowed them to create their own world, complete with characters and narratives. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time, marveling at the craftsmanship and imagination that went into creating such an extraordinary work of art. The Great House English dolls house stands as a reminder of our fascination with miniatures and our desire to recreate life on a smaller scale. Through this photograph, Bridgeman Images invites us to appreciate both the aesthetic beauty and cultural significance of this historic dollhouse – an enduring symbol of childhood wonderment and creativity.
