Vermeer. The complete works - Karl Schütz - książka
Producent: Taschen
Johannes Vermeer, a master painter from the Dutch Golden Age, managed to transform mere oil paint into lifelike scenes that have captivated audiences around the world. Although only 35 of his artworks exist today, they have become cultural phenomena, inspiring a New York Times bestselling novel, a popular film featuring Scarlett Johansson and Colin Firth, and drawing unprecedented visitor numbers to art museums from Amsterdam to Washington, DC. The Mauritshuis in The Hague implemented special crowd-control measures to accommodate the throngs eager to view the mysterious Girl with a Pearl Earring, often referred to as the “Dutch Mona Lisa.” During Vermeer's lifetime, his acclaim was limited to his native Delft and a few patrons. After his passing, his legacy faded, remembered only by select Dutch art enthusiasts, while his work was frequently misattributed to others abroad. It wasn't until the mid-19th century that his genius was internationally recognized for its intricate narratives, precise details, and stunning light effects. This 40th-anniversary edition compiles Vermeer’s entire oeuvre, presented in a single volume with unmatched reproduction quality. Through clear illustrations and insightful essays, the book highlights how Vermeer vividly captured the essence of the Dutch Golden Age and conveyed rich stories through subtle gestures and expressions.
