Miniature

Afew weeks ago, I attended a READING,
wonderful poetry and art re- WRITING &
ception at the Norwalk Public CHOCOLATE
Library. On my way out of the library,

I was drawn to an enchanting display KIM
of miniature rooms created by minia- KOVACH

turist Vance Alexander. I was amazed

at the detail and craftsmanship pre-

sented in each distinctive scene.

One of my favorites was a 17th century Venetian Style Apothecary

which displayed rows of tiny clear bottles on wooden shelves and a

miniature mortar and pestle on a wooden counter. I learned that the

tiny bottles are made out of resin and lled with dried herbs and spices.

Another of my favorite rooms was the Venetian Music Room complete

with a decoratively painted miniature harpsichord, cello, violin, French

horn, and tiny music stand.

After a long career in architectural and interior design, Vance began

crafting miniature rooms less than two years ago. A self-described “fa-

natic for correct detail and scale,” the rst room he created is called e

Artist’s Studio. e attention to detail includes tiny framed paintings on

the walls, a miniature easel with a sketched gure waiting to be nished,
