What is Miniature Art?

Miniature art is more than just small-scale work—it is a tradition of fine detail, precision, and exquisite craftsmanship. True miniatures adhere to specific size and scale guidelines, often no larger than 100 cm² and typically rendered at 1/6th of life size. These delicate artworks invite close inspection, drawing viewers into their intricate worlds.
