Thorne Rooms Virtual Tour

Beautiful commentary, perfectly suited to the spirit of Narcissa and her art.

This was such a treat to listen to! Thank you for the historical background and the analysis of the rooms themselves. I love learning about Mrs Thorne’s rooms. Just extraordinary.

My parents wanted me as a kid to do doll houses but not me because I was too afraid of losing the small parts. When I see life like miniatures I'm in awe at the tiny scale and the beauty of detail.

I saw the Thorne rooms in Chicago. It was #1 on my list of things to see in Chicago when I went there.

What an amazing woman, and man, who made these delightful just delightful miniature rooms, and the ingenuity that is involved. I am so glad I saw this video! My father made me a dollhouse when I was six years old, and most of the furniture etc.

Beautiful room boxes that go in the wall of Mrs Thorne she was a true miniaturist her work is beautiful I love all the detail and everything and it looks like it's a real house when you look at them they're so beautiful I love them thanks for sharing that with us I would like to see more of her room boxes those ones are gorgeous my niece is a miniaturist but she does hers like in fairies she makes all the furniture at a little twigs and whatever she finds around the house or outside in the in the yard or whatever she makes cute stuff even everyday things she makes him out of and they come out gorgeous

What a lovely tour! And no apologies needed - thanks for the reference to my books (The Sixty-Eight Rooms series, Random House) at the end. Happy reading!

Great video. Would love to see it with higher resolution than 240p...

[@dianehamilton525]

Enjoyed your talk, Kitsy! The Thorne Rooms are my favorite!

G’day from South Australia 🇦🇺 a very very well commentated informative podcast. Thank you 😊

[@bbygrlsaraphina]

This is amazing

[@queenswillrule]

Saw the ones in the CIA in real life after seeing them in books. The realism is phenomenal.
Glad she decided to no longer use the dolls. They immediately destroy the vision of the scale and authenticity of the rooms. These aren't play toys, they are historic replications.
If you don't know, Colleen Moore's dollhouse is another amazing structure.

[@lisanidog8178]

The detail is stunning.

Awesome!

[@MarquisDeSang]

240p ruin everything

[@seeingmine]

Sorry, can someone explain the "wrought iron embrasure" in the floor meant to dispel the winter chill? How does this work?

[@themarquis336]

So three minutes before you can actually see any of the rooms....

[@michael4576]

It's boring to watch.
