A top view of the table in Maureen Roffey's doll's house. The table has four place settings, with simple black line drawings of a plate, cutlery, and side plate for each person. There is a simple green triangle for a napkin on each side plate. The place settings are a translation of each other, with each being mostly identical, as if rotated around the centre of the table.

The table in Maureen Roffey's doll's house is laid for four people, with each person having a plate, cutlery, and side plate with napkin. You could use rotation to translate each place setting onto the next, as explained in the next diagram.
