Vermeer’s vandal: the untold story of a vicious attack at London's National Gallery in 1968

In 1968, Vermeer's painting *Young Woman Seated at a Virginal* (1670-72) was vandalized at the National Gallery in London. An unidentified attacker used a sharp instrument, likely a razor blade, to cut around the woman's head, attempting to remove it entirely. The damage was discovered hours later by a visitor, and the painting was swiftly restored; previously unreleased photographs of the attack have now been supplied to The Art Newspaper. The vandal was never caught, and their motivation remains unknown.

Featuring sixty works, including paintings, sculptures, and ceramics, the show reconstructs the artist's studios from Montmartre's Le Bateau-Lavoir to the Mougins farmhouse, using archival photographs as ghostly backdrops. Key pieces like 'Violin and Bottle on a Table' (1915) and 'Tête de femme' (1931-32) reveal how specific environments—a cramped Parisian garret, a sun-drenched villa in Avignon, a Normandy stable—shaped his stylistic reinventions from Analytic Cubism to postwar ceramics.
