In this strikingly beautiful book, leading Vermeer scholars examine the life and works of this seventeenth-century Dutch master, analyzing his evolution from a painter of religious and mythological images to an artist who explored the psychological nuances of human endeavor.

"This exhibition of Dutch paintings from American collections presents a broad picture of the incredible richness of American art holdings in the domain of seventeenth-century painting of the United Provinces. Works have been gathered from more than forty museums and private collections in the United States. Many of these will be new to the European public, and some of them are inaccessible even to the American public."
