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. --- 'Proust was once so excited to see a Vermeer show that he collapsed I got chest pains merely leafing through the catalogue'. Jonathan Jones, Guardian. 'Invest in the fat catalogue, stuffed with scholarly discoveries and photographic closeups, and you will learn about everything from Vermeers optical mastery to his moral symbolism'. Rachel Campbell-Johnston, The Times. 'Excellent'. Artists & Illustrators. --- 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. The book has been beautifully designed by Irma Boom, the `Queen of Books, and printed on an uncoated paper. With a wide selection of contextual illustrations, commentaries and up-to-date research by distinguished international Vermeer scholars, this is the definitive volume on the most admired of all seventeenth-century Dutch masters.
