🙏 Enjoyed your presentation. While visiting Amsterdam's Rijksmuseum with local friends we also enjoyed a sit-down lunch break in it's comfortable cafeteria. Very much regret missing the dedicated Vermeer exhibition. Fascinating how tranquil his scenes are when his personal life and the economy of the then Republic of the Seven United Netherlands were anything but. THANK you !

I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I certainly spent a lot of time researching everything. I don't know if you're interested in seeing my Vermeer exhibition videos but you can click on Part 1 at the end of the Rijksmuseum video.
