    Vermeer van Delft. The painting is entitled simply "View of Delft" but its atmosphere makes me dreamy and excited at the same time.

    Not a tree in sight. Or flower. At least today they try in include green spaces in cities especially along the water front.

    Delft is a beautiful town - we have a friend who lives there.

    The Red Witch - at that times waterfront was a very utilitarian place - people shipped goods, drew water, washed their clothes or simply washed themselves there. It wasn't a place of leisure.

    Tracy I would love to visit modern Delft.

    I like his paintings of Delft, but my fave is the Girl with the Pearl Earring. I've loved that way before the book and movie. :)
