A detailed miniature diorama on a wooden base, depicting a scene from H.G. Wells’ ‘The War of the Worlds’. A large, tripod fighting machine, constructed from aged brass and copper, stands amidst ruined Victorian buildings. A red, glowing heat-ray effect strikes a building, causing smoke (cotton) to rise. Tiny, terrified figures run on a cobblestone street. The base has a brass plaque engraved with ‘THE WAR OF THE WORLDS - H.G. WELLS’. The style is a dramatic, atmospheric model with dramatic lighting.
