"One can’t fault a show for being popular. But I remain struck by the myopia and the missed opportunity of a physically gigantic exhibition space that dwarfed the 28 Vermeers in it, built around the blandest of themes that a high-school student could have scribbled on the back of an envelope in half an hour."

CW - some nudity, bodily functions and medieval domestic practices and animal preparation
