His work is best known for his hushed\, introverted indoor scenes\, his unprecedented use of bright\, colourful light and his convincing illusionism. \n\n\n\nUnlike Rembrandt\, Vermeer left a remarkably small oeuvre with about 37 paintings. Because his paintings are among the masterpieces in collections and museums around the world\, his work is only lent out on rare occasions.
