About the book: This complete catalogue of Johannes Vermeer's works presents his calm yet tension-filled paintings in a generous XXL format. A large portion of his pictures were elaborately re-photographed for this volume. Numerous detail enlargements and three fold-out pages make it possible to study Vermeer's talent for vivid genre scenes in detail, his subtle lighting, and his gift for telling an entire story with just a fleeting glance.
Biography: After studying art history and archaeology at the University of Vienna, Karl Schütz worked at the Picture Gallery of the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, initially as a curator from 1972, and as director from 1990 to 2011. His research interests include Dutch and Flemish painting, early 16th-century German painting, courtly portraiture, and the history of the Picture Gallery's collection.
