Abstract

"Since his rediscovery in the later half of the nineteenth century, Johannes Vermeer (1632-1675) has been one of the most admired and influential European painters. His extremely private life, his supposed use of a camera obscura, and the fact that his teacher remains unidentified have, until recently, encouraged a view of the 'Sphinx of Delft' as an isolated genius shrouded in an air of mystery. Walter Liedtke's new monograph reveals Vermeer's life to be well documented and places his work in the context of the Delft School and of Delft society as a whole. Vermeer's many admirers will relish Liedtke's exploration of subtleties of meaning and refinements of technique and style. Alongside the most historical approach to Vermeer to date, the annotated colour catalogue of Vermeer's complete paintings reveals a master whose rare sensibility may be described but not explained."--Jacket.

Abstract

Vermeer est le seul peintre correspondant à l'idée que l'on se fait habituellement de la placidité hollandaise. Peut-être incarne-t-il un genre héroïque de placidité, car aucune de ses peintures ne laisse percer le moindre souffle d'inquiétude. Partout, nous avons l'impression que son coup de pinceau n'est qu'un lent effleurement, d'une assurance consommée, et qu'un reflet dans une bouteille, un rideau sur un mur, ou la texture d'un tapis ou d'une robe, l'intéressaient autant que les visages des hommes et des femmes. Ici, aucune virtuosité apparente, aucune prouesse du pinceau, rien de superfl

Abstract

Vermeer and the Art of Love is about the emotions evoked in those elegant interiors in which a young woman may be writing a letter to her absent beloved or playing a virginal in the presence of an admirer. But it is also about the love we sense in the painter's attentiveness to every detail within those rooms, which lends even the most mundane of objects the quality of something extraordinary.0In this engaging and beautifully illustrated book, Georgievska-Shine uncovers the ways in which Vermeer challenges the dichotomies between 'good' and 'bad' love, the sensual and the spiritual, placing him within the context of his contemporaries to give the reader a fascinating insight into his unique understanding and interpretation of the subject.

Abstract

"Wim Weve bestudeerde 'Het Gezicht op Delft' en 'Het Straatje' van Johannes Vermeer met een bouwhistorisch oog en ontdekte nieuwe interessante aspecten. 'Het Gezicht op Delft' blijkt een accuraat gezicht op die stad te zijn. Vermeer heeft daarop geen gebouwen aangepast of verdraaid en heeft de brug tussen de stadspoorten correct afgebeeld. Het huist met de trapgevel op 'Het Straatje' moet een bestaand huis geweest zijn. Vaak veronderstelde bouwkundige 'fouten' blijken op bouwkundige gronden te verklaren. Rechts van de ingang moet het huis een binnenmuur hebben gehad die een zijkamer van het voorhuis afscheidde. Vanwege de plaats van die muur is het venster rechts iets smaller dan het venster links. Door de geopende deuropening laat Johannes Vermeer echter geen binnenmuur zien. Vermeer combineerde verschillende bouwkundige elementen op een bouwkundig onmogelijke wijze, waarschijnlijk als visueel tegenwicht van het huis met de trapgevel rechts."--
