My aim in setting up this blog is in exploring flats (zinnfiguren) as an art form. Once thought of as playthings, flats have evolved into very artistic pieces, created for and treasured by collectors. I prefer to explore flats in a contextual setting by putting them into shadow-box dioramas of artistic merit which can be reasonably contained within a manageable space. The chronology of this web blog will hopefully blaze a definite trail in this direction.

Jean Leon Gerome's Snake Charmer
This great little set from Western Miniatures is part of their extensive Arabia series. Very evocative pieces. I am still finalising this set, can't decide between a panel display or a small diorama.
