Book Reviews of Jan Vermeer: The Complete Paintings: 30 Postcards (Postcardbooks)

Book Review: A must in your collection!
Summary: 5 Stars

Since I was a child I loved Vermeer. And through the years that love has grown up and has become in a real subject of perpetual admiration . There are magnificent essays about the trascendence and remarkable importance of Johannes Vermeer (I really recommend for you to seek a Marcel Brion study, for instance).
A friend of mine three years ago sent me a very brief conference in which Dali literally confessed that Vermeer was his favorite painter .
This book is a treasure . The information is precise and fundamental . The reproductions are top of the line . This is a fundamental book for you and all the friends and well aprecciated human being you know who really cares about the art .
Watch carefully the mesmerized face of the people in the Metropolitan Musseum in front of any of his paintings ,since I did it in 1998 . I was almost two hours exploring every little detail of every work.
In this sense I really recommend a hidden artistic film of the nineties titled All the Vermeers in New York (Jon Jost) (see my review).
