Vermeer (1632 1675) was a Dutch Baroque painter who specialized in domestic interior scenes of ordinary life. His entire life was spent in the town of Delft and was a moderately successful provincial painter. Virtually forgotten for nearly two hundred years, he was rediscovered in the mid 1800s. Since that time, despite the fact that very few of his paintings survive, his reputation has grown, and he is now acknowledged as one of the great painters of the Dutch Golden Age. He is particularly renowned for the intimacy his subjects exude and his mastery in the treatment of light and perspective. Like strolling through the world\'s museums. Why just hang prints?
