Why Vermeer Centre matters
Vermeer made only a few dozen paintings, and none of them hang in Delft. The Vermeer Centre fills the gap with reproductions of his works and explains his techniques, his life in the city and the locations he painted. It is a thoughtful stop for art lovers.
Talking points
- Reproductions show all his known works.
- It explains his technique and light.
- It is set on the site of the former Guild of St Luke.
