Daniel Spoerri's artwork in the Miniature Museum dates from the 1990s. Exhibiting in Amsterdam at the time, the artist was approached by the Daniels about making an artwork for the collection. Pointing at his large hands, Spoerri said that that was impossible, and added that he was lacking the material to assemble one of his Tableau Pièges on a miniature scale. Upon hearing this, Lex Daniels headed to a toy shop and purchased a number of small utensils for doll houses. Spoerri returned on the day before the opening with a completed Tableau Piège, which he had put together in his hotel room.
