Review on the film Tim's Vermeer

Art History 102 Assignment #2 – DUE 18 NOVEMBER 2015

You are to write a short essay/review on the film Tim's Vermeer, which shows how a Texan inventor takes it upon himself to look into how artists in the 17th century, Vermeer in particular, produced photorealistic paintings. Please be specific in the information you give (who, what, where, when, why, and how). Closely examine not only this documentary detailing Tim's journey of discovery, but the age-old question of what is art. One thing to keep in mind is whether there is a line between technology and art, and if so, where do we draw that distinction?

Formatting: use double-spaced, Times New Roman 12-point font, with 1 in (2.5 cm) margins!

are citing as well as citing it correctly in your bibliography.
