Frances Glessner Lee's "Nutshell Studies of Unexplained Death" are part of a new exhibit at the Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian Art museum. The collection is part art, part science, and part creepy peek into the world of forensic science.
These miniatures significantly advanced forensics and forensic science, but they aren't just CSI curios - they're complex, confounding works of art that manage to be morbid and beautiful at the same time.
Lee's legacy bridges both the art world and the world of crime - and you'll get a chance to see exactly how her nutshell studies work. These aren't just dollhouses - they're entire worlds worth exploring.

i deduced that the kitchen death was caused by gas poisoning
because from the few shots I can see the gas stove is on, the windows are locked, the doors are also locked and the small space between the door and the door frame is jammed with paper or cloth or newspaper.

Omg yes, as someone suffering from debilitating borderline bipolar disorder. I definitely feel emotionally different from beginning to middle to end of whatever im doing
This is actually impressive, as creepy and weird as it is.
I agree
I love the detail it has, and also how useful they might be
ikr, it must have taken so long to make every single detail completely right
The woman who made them was a wonderful person. Look her up, she's fun.
agree
I took a forensic science class in high school and previous students created their own dioramas just like this. The next classes created stories and did all the measurements to try and solve the crime. Very interesting assignment and one of the more memorable classes I took for sure.
Omg that sounds so fun, im in forensics rn and I love it
we did this same thing, except the teams did their own story and their own measurements. still in the class and enjoying it a lot!
Me: hear the words “where the milkman stopped by.”
Also me: IT WAS HIM, IT WAS THE MILKMAN. despite not even knowing if someone had died or been killed. The milkman is just sus

@@Elaine-re1xv tru
hehewat I figured out something in the kitchen, if you look at the woman closely, you see an ice tray. If you searched for more pictures of the scene, you see a puddle of water next to her. Could she have slipped on the ice? You can also tell that she has been dead for quite an while considering all the ice have melted
Poor milkman.

I wouldn’t even ask for one if I had that!
(THIS ISN’T HATE)
As it may scare some people, I find it fascinating how intercut these miniatures are. The tiny potatoes to the little rooms covered in tiny little details. If I received one of these I’d be great full to train my eye to see things and notice things better.

"Stabbing" and "adorable" do not belong in the same sentence....
Nicole Pfefferkorn "omg that actor looked sooo adorable in this stabbing scene"
Nicole Pfefferkorn "noo! The stabbing was on an adorable girl"
It still doesn’t sound quite right....
that poor adorable girl that visited everyday was sadly stabbed to death.
Nicole Pfefferkorn
The adorable, seemingly innocent girl turned out to be a child psychopath who murdered her brother by stabbing him with a kitchen knife in the stomach.
I remember watching the episode of CSI Las Vegas where the murderer made these and left them at the crime scene along with the real life murder. That’s my favourite episode.
what episode?
I'm currently watching the season with those now
@@autocorrectismygf9794 It's several episodes in season 7
I love seeing someone talking about the amazing woman because unfortunately not a lot of people know who she was and the importance of what she did for forensic science. She is and was the first C.S.I . It all started with her dollhouses of horror. I hope by spotlighting her more people can appreciate what she devoted her life to. Good job
I was waiting for "Frances Glessner Lee died in 1962 of natural causes... or did she" *Law and order sound effect*

Wouldn't it be more appropriate to say, "or did she?"?

Or maybe she died of natural cause
i think she died of old age
“They were living the American dream, until the murders happened.”
As a miniature builder and lover this is an amazing and exciting opportunity to have a window into a moment of time that otherwise might be forgotten. The woman who designed this exercise is brilliant, to use 1:12 scale to make the point that every small detail has a very large impact on the bigger picture. And can in fact be the detail that can solve a problematic case.
Finally a comment that’s not inane. Yes. She had an immense impact on how forensics function today.
I kind of want to play with them, but that would be tampering the evidence.
"What a pretty little psycho, this girl is"
AemiliaJacobus k but same I could make such a good story line with this I already have it in my head
may i tamper with u though

_"there is no 'solution' to be determined"_
me: noooooooooo
If there's no solution to be determined, how is it helping to train people on a real crime? If there's no solution if could just be willy nilly details that don't connect
PurpleTiger she said its to teach them to notice every detail and every possibility
nana And it remains.... UNSOLVED..
@@purrpletiger2159 I actually read something about these just yesterday. It's not that there is no solution. There is just no solution to be determined from looking at them, and it is not the point of them. The point is to notice the details. As far as I know they have been solved. But the information will not be released to the public as they are still used as training tools today.

Doll houses like these always reminds me of that movie "Hereditary"
I was thinking the same exact thing! Especially the part where Annie makes a miniature of Charlie and her decapitated head!
CZcams literally made me watch this when I was about to sleep. Now I can't sleep.
Congrats
Vox keeps making me interested in things that I never knew existed/ never knew I'd be interested in.
I agree, but they also kind of make you interested in only their story, so you never know the other side of the story
Depending on the topic sure, it's up to you to do your own research.
If you want to find some channels that accomplish that to the same effect, check out, AutsinMcconnel, or Wendover productions
I'm angry that I'm the 999th like on your comment.
True. I also saw a presentation of this subject on (Mystery@the museum) very interesting.
I wonder if the CSI episodes where a murderer sends miniature doll houses of his/her crime scenes to the police were based off these.
simongreve I was just thinking of those episodes!
I wanna see these episodes!
Joshua McLeod CSI season 7 episode 1, the whole doll house killer plot lasts until season 9... it is worth watching
yes they are
Yeah I was thinking the same thing. Some of the better CSI episodes.
I’ve seen these in person and they’re even better! The amount of detail is extraordinary
Years ago I read an article in "The Boston Globe" on the nutshell case studies. The first line was "Barbie is dead and Ken did it". I had lived in Maryland in the '90s and had known about the dioramas when they were housed in Maryland ME's office.

*HERE’S EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED IN THIS CASE*
Three Room Dwelling:
-The husband first shot his wife, leaving the stain in front of her head.
- He then walked to the baby’s room and shot the baby, leaving the stain behind it.
- He shoots himself, but doesn’t die.
- After shooting himself, he leaves the mysterious stain on the baby’s floor.
- He steadies himself using the chair in the room, which is why it’s tipped over. (The chair is blurred)
- He grips his wound to try and prevent leaving a bloodstain and leaves the room. Gripping the wound leaves blood on his hand.
- In the dining room, he stops to take a break and releases his grip, leaving the stain on the ground there. Alternatively, he shoots himself again.
- He lets the blood drip as he enters his own room, leaving the footprints.
- He loses his footing again and grips the rocking chair, tipping it over and leaving the cluster of prints suggesting he stumbled.
- He shoots himself through the head and falls on the bed, which leaves the massive stain across it and brings the blanket down with him.
- The two larger stains on his legs suggest he’d shot himself there. Once when he was in the baby’s room, the second time may have been in the dining room.
- The crime had to have taken place after the milkman arrived, since the bottles are on the porch and he would have been disturbed by the gunshots.
- Or maybe the shots were fired during his arrival, and after placing the bottles he heard the gunshot and stumbled backward, which toppled the blocks that were on the porch.
- However we don’t know where the weapon went or the explanation for the smaller stains across the man’s back.
Kitchen:
- Before leaving for work, the husband knocks his wife out using an object in the room (likely rolling pin or iron)
- Since the wife had been holding an ice cube tray, we can make a rough guess as to when the crime happened. The tray doesn’t appear to have any ice in it, so it is either empty or melted. If it’s melted, it happened father back. Depending on when the husband leaves for work, we can assume whether or not he was in the house at the time. (Or maybe it was the heat from the stoves?)
- The husband jams the door shut with the paper. The knife near the door could have been used for this.
- He turns the stove on and leaves through a window, leaving the tablecloth crooked.
- The wife’s cheeks look a little red. It may be makeup, but it could also suggest she suffocated.
Edit: Alright, lets try explaining three room dwelling as a murder by an intruder
- The intruder shoots the wife and runs to the baby’s room before the husband can react. He then shoots the baby. (He may have left the husband alive since he only had a vendetta against one of the two in the couple - he hates the husband so he shoots the the people he loves most, or he hates the wife so he kills her and her child. Not sure why he wouldn’t kill the husband in that last one, though. Maybe he just didn’t see him under the covers in his rush..?)
- The husband follows the sound of the gunshot and fights the intruder. This is where the first shot into his leg is fired, where the chair is tipped over, and where the extra bullet ends up on the floor. It may also be where the bloody prints are left on his back.
- The husband realizes he doesn’t have a chance here and grips his leg while running (or doing his best to run) back to his room.
- Another shot into his leg is fired in the kitchen.
- Once they approach the bedroom, there’s another scuffle that tips the second chair and leaves all the prints.
- The husband either goes right to reach the phone or left to get a weapon in a drawer (assuming he has one).
- If he goes right, the killer shoots him and wraps him in the blanket to put him back in the bed (an attempt at a red herring, maybe?). The husband rolls out of the bed due to the dead weight, which leaves the bloodstain across the sheets (however it’s a bit too big to have resulted by rolling over). Alternatively, the intruder knocks the husband out by forcing him against the chair. Then he wraps him in the blanket and shoots him while he‘s in the bed. He still rolls over, but the stain is now caused more by the shot itself than by a trail.
- If he goes left for a weapon (a more likely explanation), he is shot by the intruder there. He falls on the bed, leaving the stain. The blanket may have been left by him earlier as he got out of bed in a panic.
- Our milkman explanation still works, but the disappearing weapon and back prints are explained.
W o w. This is extremely underrated! Wow... Wow. Amazing job, this is wonderful! You are a very attentive and clever minded person!
Rainbow Opal You could become
A world class detective
Very questionable deduction. Especially the first one you pointed out, the three room dwelling. I would like to question the others too but im lazy to type and the three room dweling has so much evidence so imma point this one only. Remember, if the husband did shot her, why is the gunshell located between the dresser and the toppled rocking chair? The blood splash was facing the telephone, indicating that she was facing the telephone or using the telephone when she was shot. You can see her position because of the bloodsplash, and the telephone shows that it was being used. Probabbly she was phoning 911.
Also, the blood marks on the pajamas indicates that someone with bloodied hands dragged him. The weapon might be the bloodied egg beater and the bloodied spoon in the kitchen, on the bowl that was used to kill the husband That makes your deduction very questionable. It doesnt add up anything at all. Peace sissy!

It's "Orbit", by Christian Garrick
Please note: one room took YEARS to make. These days, we have a lot of prefab stuff (like baseboards, railings, stairs...) so a whole house can take 3 years.

Seriously though those dollhouses are really detailed man
The scale factors kind of creep me out
All of them are. You'll see these in movies constantly and not even know.
Back to the Future had minis. So did Titanic, when the water burst through the hallway and some dining room scenes.
The hall was about waist high to an adult, because water is its own scale. And any smaller, would make that obvious...
There's a whole magazine about this: Miniature Collector.
They are really detailed
Anyone remember the episode of CSI when Grissom and the team would find one at each murder, then get a clue to the next doll house? They had to figure out the scene before the murder.
1:56 they were living an american dream until the murder happen

Vox: There’s no solution, these are merely tools for observing the right things :)
Me: but what is the aNsWeRrRr
The solutions are not to be found solely within the dioramas. They are intended as teaching sides so that novice detectives learn how to spot details and gather clues that will then be used in the full investigation. The solutions to the actual incidents relied on using the clues in conjunction with witness statements, detective work, etc.
The solutions cannot be made public as that would invalidate the dioramas usefulness as training tools.
Instructor: This test was just to see how you would come up with an answer.
Student: Yeah but what's the ANSWER?

It's called L.A Noire
I agree with the commenter above. L.A. Noire is a great video game to play if you like solving mysteries, only you play as a cop who gets promoted to different positions as the cases get harder. Not only will it test your observation skills, but there are also times where you interrogate both the suspect, the victim or the bystander to come up with the conclusion to the case. As you progress into the game, you’ll also get to experience the backstory of the cop you play as :D There’s a playable VR version to the game if that’s what you’re looking for.
AR, my friend.
When you have a love for miniatures but also murder
IndianaBananas, Ikr! I am so that person!
Yup😂👏👏
That's so me XD
You love murder?
And i thought my sims household was a dollhouse of death...
These are yet another example of what the human mind can accomplish. Their obsessive details caused a significant change in the methods used by investigators trying to solve cases of murder, which makes for a better society. Getting police to search for those that actually committed the crimes, rather than just arresting those that they were suspicious of, and then fitting facts to fit their suspicion. Truly artistic creations and teaching tools. Amazing
That must be one of the best endings to a Vox video ever.

I agree. But creepy. Of course it was meant to be creepy. And then they wrecked it with the ending.
LA Fresh Life
One of Chicago's most famous landmarks is Glessner House, an H.H.Richardson mansion that was built on the near South Side for Frances Glessner Lee's father, who started the company that became International Harvester. Interestingly, there is in the Art Institute of Chicago, a famous collection of dioramas, the Thorne Rooms, which are meticulously detailed rooms depicting interiors from different historical periods and countries. These were all crafted between 1934 and 1940. This is right before Chicago-native Lee began crafting her 'nutshells'. One has to wonder if she knew of the Thorne Rooms, and if they were in any way an inspiration.

These dioramas are so interesting! I can imagine the forensic fun it must have been to create them.
They are puzzles but never been solved. That’s what makes life.
this how melanie’s song “dollhouse” be like
*d o l l h o u s e i see things that nobody else sees*
+ sippy cup vibes
don't let them see what goes down in *THE KITCHEN*
what X is like*, not ''how''.
It also reminds me of Chloe Moriondo’s Kindergarten.
The ending is incredibly frustrating. It like when your teacher used to tell you before a test that "there are no right or wrong answers".
There are right answers. The problem is that these are still used for training so the answers of "what happened?" are kept secret by the Medical Examiner. You can only learn the answers by becoming the Medical Examiner, that, or by enrolling in a class done in collaboration with Medical Examiner to use the Nutshells as learning aids.
I saw these in the Maryland Medical Examiners office during a forensics conference! They were incredible. I wish I had had more time to look them over.
Ooo imagine if you could get a VR experience in these doll houses. That would be hella creepy but also a fun way of learning how to find these smaller details.

What are these, murders for ants?
Томас Андерсон Yes. The big blood splotch is a bunch of hiding red ants.
This comment is great.
ants are the murderers !!!
Томас Андерсон Nope, Antman.
ha, most of these replies don't get the reference.
Imagine being her daughter if she had one she would make a cool doll house.
I loved the 99% invisible podcast episode 165 on Frances Glessner Lee. They talked about these miniatures and her story is so fascinating. Thank you for the close-ups of these harrowing but fascinating dollhouses.
this sounds like a _great_ date idea to me
Now finally a museum date can be interesting!
CheesecakeLasagna You don't have cool museums where you live?
Haahaahaa!
raye i
raye maybe after y’all are already together nothing for new people
Who else here just wants to know story behind the actual murders? I'm too curious.
there is no real solution. remember ????
TheRisky9 damn you didn’t have to write a whole book
Sorry. Can't help myself sometimes.
TheRisky9 your comment was interesting.
TheRisky9 interesting! Anddd also kinda said to me, i hate stories that don't have a concrete ending lol. I'm the kind who needs closure lol. I was leaning towards someone trying to stage her murder as a suicide and somehow escaped through a window and jarred it, perhaps even her own husband...i watch too much tv lol.
She clearly was an artistic genius .forward thinking in forensic analysis.A brilliant mind ,an artist who captures the minutiae of enviroment in absolutely beautiful period detail .A woman truly worthy of a documentary.
She used her wealth to put her time and dedicate her life in a way nobody else would be able to. I commend her incredible spirit and accomplishments!
the music is amazing though
fajar ahmad setiawan Indeed.
I NEED TO FIND THE NAME
Sounds a lot like Jim Guthrie - "The Fantabulous World Of Jimmy 3 Guts" around the 6:00 mark

Why do i want these so badly
The mature me is screaming
"DUDE YOU'RE TOO OLD FOR DOLLHOUSES"
And the immature me is screaming
"IT LOOKS SO COOL THO"
And the sensitive me is just crying and terrified in the corner
DO IT!!! ITS FUN!
It always fascinating how artist can make these tiny houses with so much detail and make them so realistic. Absolutely amazing
I want to watch a stop motion crime drama!
I want Laika to make that into a movie or HBO miniseries.

Make it so!
