Looking for something to do on a Tuesday night? The Kings Film Society - Annapolis Royal presents Tims Vermeer at 7:30pm. For centuries, the paintings of Dutch master Johannes Vermeer have left viewers awe-stricken. Art historians describe his radiant style, far ahead of his contemporaries, as painting with light. What was his secret? That mystery would draw the attention of Penn & Teller, the magic duo with a penchant for exposing other peoples tricks. In Tims Vermeer, they document the obsession of their friend Tim Jenison, a successful inventor of computer graphics equipment - but NOT a painter - who sets out to prove a theory. Tims mission: to paint with his own hands a replica of Vermeers The Music Lesson—a tableau of a woman and her teacher at a harpsichord—which normally hangs in Buckingham Palace out of public view.
