  • 袖珍博物館,是亞洲第一家以為主題收藏的博物館,位於台灣台北市中山區建國北路一段96號B1(台証金融大樓),收藏相當多袖珍作品,大部份是縮小12倍的,並使用真實材料。創辦人林文仁。成立於1997年3月28日。該館號稱是全球收藏當代袖珍藝術最大的主題館。 袖珍博物館目前致力於推廣在英國歷史悠久的袖珍藝術。館藏品中最經典是一棟大型娃娃屋「玫瑰豪宅」(Rose Mansion),由Reginald Twigg製作,曾獲得國際袖珍藝術雜誌評價「25年來十大傑出作品」。 博物館的收藏品不勝枚舉,大多數是館長林文仁夫婦的私人珍藏。館內第一件收藏品為鄉村茶廊與古董店。這件袖珍作品是一間英式風格的茅草屋。最小的作品為樹上礦坑,以1比120的比例做成,其作者不詳。作品“風馳電擎中的雷河小鎮”為館內現存最大的袖珍作品。取材1912年的美國西部科羅拉多州的「雷河小鎮」,在暴風雨中的情境。而最珍貴的袖珍作品是英國的“白金漢宮”,是由英國知名袖珍藝術家Kevin Mulvany&Susan夫妻倆用了三年多時間才完成,建築外觀和內部裝潢都是依照白金漢宮原樣。 (zh)

  • The Miniatures Museum of Taiwan (Chinese: 袖珍博物館; pinyin: Xiùzhēn Bówùguǎn)is the first museum to collect miniatures in Asia. The museum was founded on March 28, 1997, by Mr. Lin Wen-ren and his wife. It is located in Zhongshan District, Taipei, Taiwan. Mr. Lin and his wife enjoyed buying little houses and toy cars for their children while traveling for business purposes. While in The Netherlands, they discovered miniature art and were deeply attracted. They began buying accessories, furniture, and assembled miniature houses. At the same time, the couple participated in auctions and joined international miniature art associations. They began planning their museum in 1993. The logo of the museum comes from "Rose Mansion", one of the museum's most famed collections. Chosen as one of ten most significant miniature art works of America in twenty-five years, "Rose Mansion" consumed Dr. Reginald Twigg almost four years to complete. After his elaborate research and study the once famous architecture has been brought back to life as you now see in the museum. The logo represents delicate, real, dream-like, romantic, and historically correct nature of miniature arts. Miniatures originated within German palaces of the 16th century as tools for teaching aristocratic children, but appreciation for the art form did not pass to other parts of the world until much later during the 19th century. Today, miniature masterpieces are found throughout Europe and North America covering subjects from complete settings to intricate accessories of tableware and wall paintings. Reproductions tend to follow a 1:12 standard scale of accuracy, or half scale at 1:24. Taiwan's museum is the first to specialize in contemporary miniatures and features two formats: "doll house" and room box with cut away views. It is ranked second in the world, with a collection of nearly 200 items. Founder Lin Wen-Ren and his wife sourced each item while travelling in Europe and the United States. (en)
