Johannes Vermeer's Woman Holding a Balance

Start Feature

Technical Requirements

We recommend using the most recent version of Netscape or Internet Explorer.

Macintosh browsers should be set to font size 12, the standard default. Windows users should set their font preference to size 10 or "small" to preserve the intended page layout.

A Javascript-enabled browser will allow you to access "pop-up" windows with additional information and pictures. Please note: some java-enabled browsers contain a "bug" that may disable links in popup windows that have been resized. If you experience this problem after resizing a pop-up window, simply "reload" the page and the links should work properly.

If you have a small computer screen or are using an older browser, you might prefer using the alternate version of the Vermeer feature, which contains traditional navigation links rather than pop-up comparisons. Non-javascript-enabled browsers should use the alternate feature and click the browser's back button after viewing comparative material.

Remember, you can adjust your screen's brightness if these images appear too light or too dark on your computer.
