About This Item

Istanbul: Rahmi M. Koç Müzesi, 2014. 1st Edition . Dust jacket. New/New. 4to - over 9¾ - 12" tall. Original bdg. Dust wrapper. 4to. (29 x 24 cm). In English and Turkish. 200 p., color ills. 'Doll's houses' from a private collection. Big worlds on a small scale: Dolls' houses.= Küçük ölçekte büyük dünyalar: Bebek evleri. [Exhibition catalogue]. "The Rahmi M. Koç Museum in Istanbul is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year. Our museum offers invaluable collections dedicated to the history of transport, industry and communications. Among its collections, the museum has historic vehicles, a maritime collection, unique models and engines, as well as a street of recreated traditional shops, including a toyshop. Our collections appeal to the interests of people from 5 to 90 years old. More than 400,000 people visited our museums in Istanbul, Ankara and Ayvalik this year, and more than half of our visitors are children and students. We carry out many educational activities for children, and while we were going through the history of the industry of toy making, we came to realize that the 'dolls' house' is one of the milestones of this history. Thus, we decided to prepare and open an exhibition about them in honour of our 20th anniversary. We hope that this exhibition, the first of its kind in Turkey, will help flourish the rich imagination of our young visitors and take our adult visitors back to their childhood. Dolls' houses are outstanding and extraordinary works of art that make people find themselves reminiscing about their childhood; pushing the limits of their imagination; and reflecting on their inner worlds, the societies they live in, and history. The exhibition includes dolls' houses from the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries. They reflect their owners' personalities and tastes with their colour, smell, pattern and details like furniture, fabrics, curtains, carpets, chandeliers and number of rooms. An English dolls' house named Ruby Villa, which was made for Ruby Gibs in 1880. Inside, it is decorated with original wallpapers of the period. In the right upper room is a Waltershausen desk. The brass oil lamp on the table is also German, late 19th century...".
