Vermeer's Maps by Rozemarijn Landsman is a comprehensive study of the artist's depiction of wall maps in his paintings. Published with the Frick Collection, this book explores the intricate fusion of art and science that defined Vermeer's work during the 17th century. Through stunning reproductions and incisive text, Landsman examines nine paintings attributed to Vermeer that feature wall maps, including the renowned Officer and Laughing Girl and his masterpiece, The Art of Painting. Drawing on rare surviving examples of the maps and other primary sources, this book greatly enriches our understanding of Vermeer's art and life. With a focus on the cartographic objects that held an important place in 17th-century Netherlands, Vermeer's Maps offers a fresh perspective on one of the world's most beloved artists.
