Amazing Map of Delft

Included in the exhibit space for the new blockbuster show at the National Gallery of Art entitled: "Vermeer and the Masters of Genre Painting" is a little "reading room" space.  Only one work of art decorates it's walls: this amazing printed map of Delft featuring images of important buildings and landmarks.  It's from the National Gallery's Library collection, a portion of its holdings that rarely sees the light of day.
