Timothy Brook’s book explores the global connections and transformations of the seventeenth century through the lens of Dutch artist Johannes Vermeer’s paintings. It argues that Vermeer’s works reveal evidence of a rapidly expanding world of trade, exploration, and cultural exchange, providing a unique perspective on the historical context of that era.
