His delicate paintings of genre scenes and landscapes are famous throughout the world for their exquisite use of light.

With its reproductions of the 35 paintings ascribed to him, this volume provides a complete catalogue of the artist's oeuvre. Focusing on life in the artist's native city, Delft, the author vividly describes the prosperous Dutch seaport in Vermeer's time- a bustling world of merchants, sea traders, and artists.
