Vermeer Centrum Delft: the oeuvre through reproductions

The Vermeer Centrum Delft is an information centre about Johannes Vermeer, his work and the city. The display uses reproductions; this is not a collection of original Vermeer paintings.

Surveying an oeuvre

Reproductions make it possible to view several scenes side by side. Look out for recurring compositions, light and spaces, while keeping in mind the difference from an original painting.

A studio as explanation

The Vermeer Studio is mentioned as one of the parts. Use the explanation to understand what the set-up aims to show about painting, without reading a model or reconstruction as a direct historical observation.

Following an audio tour

The audio tour is included in the offer described. It can link the individual images and gives you the chance to linger on a subject at your own pace.

Before you go

Check the public holiday hours and the current route. Museumkaart (Dutch museum pass) entry here is a discount scheme, not ordinary free admission; a time slot is not mentioned as mandatory.
