Fan of Vermeer?
Feb. 3rd, 2023 08:17 amIf you are a fan of Vermeer, as I am, you might be interested in the Rijksmuseum's collaborative effort with Mauritshuis in The Hague to display (in person and ALSO virtually if you can't get to Amsterdam to see it in person) a very respectable percentage of all existing Vermeers in one place. I like Vermeer enough that in 2017, I drove through a snowstorm with my mother in order to see Vermeers when they were in DC... so I know what I'll be doing this weekend, in front of the fire, with a margarita in hand. It's The Best Way to Enjoy Vermeer if you can't be there in person.
The Rijksmuseum (which is a great place to visit, I have been there, said museum also has the VERY LARGE, seriously, the thing is huge, Rembrandt painting The Night Watch) has helpfully hired Stephen Fry to narrate in English if that might encourage you further to enjoy this virtual Vermeer viewing.
