International Women’s Day table (2022) by Elizabeth Joseph, Museum of the Home, London

Who’s this table set for? Twenty inspirational women from around the world who have excelled in the arts and music are commemorated here. The museum’s resident miniaturist – who doesn’t have one? – has created this tiny artwork, with a place setting for each.

She says:
‘Miniatures force us to lean in and take a closer look … we isolate our focus on one item at a time. My aim is to encourage us to project our own interests and beliefs onto the miniature items.’
