I was, seeing those paintings by surprise completely took my breath away. I had to sit down or fall down. I spent about two hours in that room.

Came to post this. Super interesting doc on one man's curiosity and innovations, in an attempt to unravel the secrets of Vermeer's techniques.

If you have any interest in Vermeer, art, or optics, you must see Tim's Vermeer, a documentary about modern efforts to duplicate Vermeer's techniques.

Whenever I see Stephen Fry's name I think it's going to be Phillip J Fry and then I'm disappointed when it's not.

I would highly recommend the documentary 'Tim's Vermeer's. It's one of my favorites, and I really learned a ton about art and technology watching it!

I was wandering around The Hague and went down an alleyway where I saw a bunch of Japanese tourists lined up at a door. There was no sign but I figured it was a museum and followed them inside where it was confirmed that I was entering a museum. I poked around from room to room till I came upon a room that had a Vermeer on each wall. Fortunately there was a round seat in the center of the room so I could sit as I was about to pass out. It was wonderful!

If the text is just one line, it's not gonna be useful. If it's a long text, this will save a lot of alt-tabbing.
