About the book: Subtle lighting direction, great color effects, sophisticated image compositions, and astonishing psychological depth of field: Johannes Vermeer left posterity only a few works – but they are packed with substance. Karl Schütz’s highly praised monograph reveals the secrets of a genius who led genre painting to unimagined heights artistically and in terms of content.
Biography: After studying art history and archaeology at the University of Vienna, Karl Schütz initially worked as a curator from 1972 and from 1990 to 2011 as director at the Gemäldegalerie of the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna. His research interests include Dutch and Flemish painting, German painting of the early 16th century, court portraiture, and the history of the Gemäldegalerie's collection.
