This title is a Taschen 25 - Special edition! This title deals with Vermeer's women, their duties and unspoken dreams. The 35 paintings that have come down to us from the hand of Jan Vermeer (1632-1675) place him beside Rembrandt and Frans Hals as one of the great masters of the golden age of Dutch art. Little is known of Vermeer's early life and training, though we can be certain that he never knew great success or acclaim during his lifetime, and after his death - reputedly in part because of the stress of his debts - his work was almost completely forgotten for the best part of two centuries. And yet today he is acknowledged as an exquisitely talented and highly original artist. Most of his pictures (all of which are reproduced in this book) show middle-class women about their daily business. Vermeer records the tasks and duties of these women, the imperatives of virtue under which their lives were lived, while also evoking their dreams and their contrasting inner worlds. Every book in Taschen's "Basic Art Series" features: a detailed chronological summary of the artist's life and work, covering the cultural and historical importance of the artist; approximately 100 color illustrations with explanatory captions; and, a concise biography.

很全面,但必须说有些很喜欢的画幅实在是有点小了,尤其是后面的索引部分真的看不清楚。有同时代的画作对比和画中出现的实物图作为参考,文字介绍部分很详细,就是这么多英语真的是有点懒得看。

梵高关于Vermeer和Velázquez的评价比较真是一针见血,他们的画都有一种言而未尽又沉静的力量。以及我觉得他俩都是超越时代的画家,不仅仅是技法上。
