Speaker: Ken Kaszak, Investment Adviser and Writer

Johannes Vermeer is one of the most famous artists of all time. Henry Clay Frick and Andrew Mellon coveted his paintings yet half of the people who live in Pittsburgh have no idea who Vermeer is or what his legacy to the art world is. This class shares Ken’s introduction to Vermeer, the five trips to Europe to see Vermeer’s works, and the unique things that happened during the journey. Features of the presentation include the story behind the private showing of a Vermeer in the storage area of Buckingham Palace and the subject that has become a personal favorite—stolen art.
