Despite numbering at just 35, Johannes Vermeer's (1632–1675) works have sparked a remarkable phenomenon. A New York Times best seller, a film starring Scarlett Johansson and Colin Firth, record-breaking visitor numbers at art institutions from Amsterdam to Washington, DC, and even special crowd-control measures at the Mauritshuis, The Hague, where thousands flock to catch a glimpse of the enigmatic and enchanting Girl with a Pearl Earring, also known as the "Dutch Mona Lisa."
In his lifetime, however, Vermeer's fame barely extended beyond his native Delft and a small circle of patrons. After his death, his name was largely forgotten, except by a few Dutch art collectors and dealers. Outside of Holland, his works were even misattributed to other artists. It wasn't until the mid-19th century that Vermeer came to the attention of the international art world, which suddenly recognized his narrative minutiae, meticulous textural detail, and majestic planes of light. Spotting a genius, they never looked back.
This 40th-anniversary edition showcases the complete catalog of Vermeer's work, presenting the serene yet captivating scenes that have been treasured in galleries across Europe and the United States in one monograph of utmost reproduction quality. Crisp details and essays tracing Vermeer's career illuminate his remarkable ability not only to bear witness to the trends and trimmings of the Dutch Golden Age but also to encapsulate an entire story in just one transient gesture, expression, or look.
Vermeer's legacy continues to inspire and captivate audiences around the world, reminding us of the power of art to transcend time and capture the essence of human experience.
