As well as bringing Vermeer’s works together, both the Rijksmuseum and the Mauritshuis in the Hague have conducted research into Vermeer’s artistry, his artistic choices and motivations for his compositions, as well as the creative process behind his paintings.

  • Exclusive access to THE world’s biggest exhibition of 2023.
  • Includes the first time the newly restored Girl Reading a Letter at the Open Window will be displayed.

“We would not have thought it possible that so many museums are willing to lend their masterpieces. With this exhibition we can introduce a new generation to Vermeer’s paintings…”

Taco Dibbits, Director of the Rijksmuseum
