Frances Glessner Lee, the first lady of forensic science, was a cult curiosity. Now, she’s becoming an art star. In the 1940s and ‘50s, Frances made a series of meticulously handcrafted models known as ‘‘The Nutshell Studies of Unexplained Death.’’ The minute scenes — the scale is 1 inch to 1 foot — were created to train investigators to observe, weigh and prioritize evidence, and to ignore false leads, hasty conclusions, assumptions and bias. They’re composites of actual cases, cleverly constructed to present a complex set of conflicting clues. And they are an American tragedy: working men, housewives, babies in their cribs, the down-at-heel, the upright and elderly, families, lonely-hearts. Frances was a rich, frustrated woman in her 60s, and almost belligerent in her pursuit of a place in the infant field of forensic science. Entry to this professional realm was a double-locked door: men, and in particular police, held the keys. Today, nearly all of her models are owned by @harvardmed — and they’re now on view at the Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington, DC. @justingellerson took this photo of “Pink Bathroom,” one of 19 miniature #crimescenes.
