Vermeer's Delft
/until 4 June
Throughout the 17th century, Delft was a city full of talent and innovation. Here, Johannes Vermeer (1632-1675) grew to be an artist of global scale. For the first time ever, the life of this world-known Delfts master is the focus of an exhibition. Prime pieces of Delfts peers will be presented alongside Delfts ceramic, Delfts tapestries, archival objects and personal documents. With these pieces, we'll paint a clear picture of the artistic, intellectual, and social climate of Delft in the 17th century.
Audio tour
Admission includes an audio tour, available in English, Dutch and French.
Podwalk
In this narrated walk (in Dutch), we take the listener into Vermeer’s city. You can listen to the podwalk anywhere: on the sofa at home, on the train and on a walk through the city of Delft, before or after visiting the exhibition.
