“SIZE MATTERS” EXHIBITION – WA MARITIME MUSEUM

An exhibition of miniature paintings by members of the Watercolour Society of Western Australia. (Watercolourswa)

A miniature painting “is not a small painting but rather a life size painting in the little.” So said Samuel Cooper (1609-1672) one of the stars at the height of their popularity. A miniature is usually considered small enough to be held in the hand.
