A Private, Guided Tour featuring Vermeer and the Masters of Genre Painting at the National Gallery of Art in Washington DC

Your expert art historian guide will lead you or your group through works by Vermeer and other masters of Genre Painting at the NGA. We’ll provide historical context, biographical information on Vermeer and his contemporaries, and much more.
