Hi John,
In January 2002 I went to Delft to take the pictures. It took 5 or six photographs to compose this one. It is taken from the 'Nieuwe Kerk' (The church which is bathing in light, on the right, in Vermeer's View of Delft. The dutch royal family gets buried here) I placed some numbers on the picture:
1- It's a bit outside the picture, but about here stood Vermeer's studio where he painted most of his paintings.
2- This is where the Inn of his father stood 'Mechelen', Vermeer's lived here during his childhood.
3- Here Vermeer was buried, and still there is a little tomb, it's only a stone with inscription.
4- from this direction the 'View of Delft' was painted.
5- This is the town-hall of Delft.
Greetings,
Peter
