Room 3: The Window on the Left

In the manner of Johannes Vermeer · Dutch, 1632–1675 · Dutch Golden Age

Vermeer painted the same room for twenty years: a window on the left, a woman doing something small and absorbing, light that seems to have weight. He would still want the window. He would only want to know what she is looking at now.
