A collection of assorted miniatures and optical toy components. The lot comprises an oval portrait of a lady mounted on a brown velvet backing, a landscape scene depicting a figure in a garden within a decorative metal filigree frame, and several small gilt-framed still-life works. These still-life pieces include two fruit arrangements and a floral display; the floral work bears a signature to the lower right corner appearing to read Biudi. The collection also includes several square glass magic lantern slides featuring hand-coloured or printed illustrations of figures in historical dress and interior scenes, some of which are marked with numeric indices including 5 and 8. These items are consistent with 1/12 scale dollhouse art and vintage miniature collectibles.
