![The Music Lesson by Vermeer, part of the Royal Collection Trust and is usually on view at Buckingham Palace (England).
The scene is situated in a large room, apparently shown in perfect perspective. A room of this size did not exist in Vermeer’s home. The harpsichord has a Latin inscription: Musica Laetitiae Comes Medicina Dolor[um] - Music, Companion of Joy, Balm for Sorrow.

CAPOLAVORO!!!
"Lady Writing a Letter, with her Maid" is one of Vermeer's last works and can be found in the National Gallery of Ireland. The painting is extraordinary in the application of some flat areas of colour, as tiles of irregular shape next to each other, not smoothly blended.
