"Vermeer: Portraits of A Lifetime" is a revolutionary reexamination
of the mystique and mythology surrounding the 17th Century Dutch
Master painter, Johannes Vermeer. For the first time in over 300
years names of people who posed for his paintings are identified.
An unknown portrait of Vermeer, painted by his friend, Gerard ter
Borch, is exposed. This book is an empathetic retrospective, built
on observations that reveal answers to dozens of speculations about
his paintings, his wife, his daughters, and contemporaries who were
the subjects of his art, and with whom he shared his brief life in
Delft. The PDF version of this book includes full color plates of
each of the remaining works of Vermeer. The paperback version
contains black and white plates of each of his paintings.
Researched and written by Lawrence R. Spencer, author and master
oil painter who, without training, "remembered" how to paint at the
age of 30.
