Known for his extraordinary technique and harmonious compositions, Jan Vermeer is the subject of 2023's most talked-about blockbuster exhibition (at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam). This one-day course will take a comprehensive look at Vermeer's oeuvre, which brought photographic clarity to painting long before the existence of photography as an art form, and three centuries before "photorealism" was considered a genre of painting. Vermeer's depictions of figures in domestic interiors - small in scale but monumental in terms of quality - will be examined in eye-popping detail, and nearly all of Vermeer's known works will be shown. If you feel as though you can never get enough of Vermeer, then this course might help to reinvigorate you for the summer!
