Narcissa Niblack Thorne (May 2, 1882 – June 25, 1966) was an American artist known for her extremely detailed miniature rooms.

Her works depict historical interiors from Europe, Asia and North America from the late 13th to the early 20th century.

[4] Thorne's best-known works show the interiors of upper-class homes from England, the United States, and France.

[5] They are painstakingly precise, and when maintenance is required, it has to be done with delicate tweezers and cotton swabs, the furnishings being carefully restored to their original position with reference to a detailed layout plan.

[4] The death of her husband in 1946 left Thorne with an estate worth upwards of 2 million dollars, enabling her to continue focusing on her work.

[4] Due to poor health, Thorne closed her studio in March 1966, donating her remaining works to charity.
