Tim's Vermeer - Dutch master Johannes's art secret! The blend of science and art!

For years, art experts have been asking how the 17th-century Dutch artist Johannes Vermeer “painted with light”, and with such precision, so that his oils can seem almost like backlit photographs. The answer was a mix of art and science: Professor Philip Steadman suggested in his 2001 book Vermeer’s Camera that Vermeer used a camera obscura to beam images on to canvas; the artist David Hockney also suspected Vermeer used optics. What Tim’s Vermeer does, however, is to prove the point, by painting an accurate Vermeer using those techniques.
