Vermeer - The Rijksmuseum's major exhibition catalogue (inbunden, eng)

Published to accompany the once-in-a-lifetime exhibition at the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, this is the first major study on Vermeer's life and work for many years. Vermeer's intensely quiet and enigmatic paintings invite the viewer into a private world, often prompting more questions than answers. Who is being portrayed? Are his subjects real or imagined? And how did he create such an unrivalled sense of intimacy?Bringing together diverse strands of the Dutch master's professional and private worlds, this is the first major authoritative study of Vermeer's life and work for many years, throwing light on all thirty-seven of his paintings. With a wide selection of contextual illustrations, commentaries and up-to-date research by distinguished international Vermeer scholars, here is the definitive volume on the most admired of all seventeenth-century Dutch masters, one of the world's greatest artists.With contributions byBart Cornelis, National Gallery, LondonBente Frissen, Rijksmuseum, AmsterdamSabine Penot, Kunsthistorisches Museum, ViennaPieter Roelofs, Rijksmuseum, AmsterdamFriederike Schuett, Staedel Museum, Frankfurt am MainChristian Tico Seifert, National Galleries of Scotland, EdinburghAriane van Suchtelen, Mauritshuis, The HagueGregor J.M.
