  • Gems of Holland Weekend Break
    Gems of Holland Weekend Break Experiencing the best Holland has to offer while avoiding the tourist crowds at certain places? The smaller cities of Leiden and Delft have all the Dutch characteristics: cheese markets, famous painters, typical canals, rich history, churches with stained-glass windows, windmills, lovely squares and ancient cobbled alleys. Added to that, a laid-back and lively atmosphere, relatively low numbers of visitors and short distances between the sights, these cities make for a great exploration of what Holland has to offer. You end this trip true Dutch-style: with an excellent cycling route through the sand dunes to the North Sea coast near Leiden. Trip Itinerary FRIDAY - DAY 1: ARRIVAL IN DELFT Upon arrival to Delft railway station, it’s an easy few-minute walk to your hotel. Alternatively you could take a taxi from the railway station (not included). Delft is a charming city with many canals and characteristic buildings and courtyards, that is famous for being the place that painter Johannes Vermeer lived in the 17th century. A leisurely stroll to the center, and alongside the typical canals and cobbled squares will take you to the Vermeer Centre, where you can learn all about this painter who spent all his life in Delft (1632-1675). He only made 37 paintings during his life, and at the Vermeer Centre you can see reproductions of all of these, including the Milkmaid and View of Delft. Have a look into his ​ ​ ​ ​ studio and allow yourself to be taken back in time to 17th century Delft. Don’t skip the market square and the Old and New Church also (entrance fee not included).

Gambardella2, Victor Gonzalez2,3, Marine Cotte4,5, Wout De Nolf4, Katrien Keune2,6, Emilien Leonhardt7, Suzan de Groot8, Art Ness Proaño Gaibor8 and Abbie Vandivere1 Abstract Johannes Vermeer (1632–1675) is known for his brilliant blue colours, and his frequent use of the costly natural ultramarine. This paper reveals new fndings about ultramarine in the headscarf of Girl with a Pearl Earring (c. 1665, Mauritshuis). The painting was examined using a range of micro- and macroscale techniques as part of the Girl in the Spotlight research project (2018). Analysis of micro-samples mounted as cross-sections using SEM–EDX and FTIR-ATR showed that Vermeer used high-quality ultramarine in the blue headscarf, based on the relative abundance of bright blue particles of lazurite. Analysis with synchrotron sulphur K-edge XANES suggested that the ultramarine pigment was prepared—at least in part—from a heat-treated lapis lazuli rock. The entire painting was imaged using MS-IRR, MA-XRF, RIS, and digital microscopy to reveal the distribution of materials of the headscarf, and to give more insight into Vermeer’s painting process. The shadow part of the headscarf has a remarkably patchy appearance, due to paint degradation that is probably related to the large amounts of chalk Vermeer mixed in the ultramarine paint in this area. The question was raised as to whether extra chalk was added deliberately to the paint to adjust the handling proper- ties or opacity, or whether the chalk was the substrate of a—now faded—yellow lake.

  • Johannes Vermeer and His Neighbours
    Johannes Vermeer and his neighbours By H.G.Slager This paper is for academic purposes only (public domain) H.G. Slager, independent researcher Ommen, The Netherlands, october 2017 Cover image: detail of Vermeer’s Woman in blue reading a letter, Rijksmuseum Amsterdam General summary A reconstruction of Johannes Vermeer’s predominantly catholic neighbourhoud was possible by aligning several 17th century house registers and verification via individual archival records like sales deeds. Information in the (Delft) archives on catholics is hampered by the illegality and secrecy of the religion at the time; events may have taken place without a lawyer, notary, Orphan chamber or other official. Such information is prone to loss or at best has survived but dispersed. New information on Vermeer and/or his neighbours may have to come from other places like church archives, private archives or public archives outside Delft as has been the (limited) experience in this study. The reconstruction provides a detailed picture of the house- and owner situation in the 17th century in the so- called Papist corner where Vermeer had lived and died. Reanalyzing old and new data it is concluded Vermeer’s residence from 1663 (or earlier) until 1675 could be different than concluded in the past. The corner house on the other side of the Molenpoort alley has an equal chance to have been Vermeer’s residence. Many houses in the Papist corner harbouring the Jesuit statie (station or mission) were bought by rich catholics as the Jesuits were unable to legally buy property for themselves. Several of these sponsors resided elsewhere and likely only stayed in Delft on occasion.
