A visitor looks at "Lady Writing a Letter with her Maid" painting during the opening of the new exhibition "Vermeers love Letters" at The Frick Collection in New York City on June 18, 2025. In a special exhibit comprising just three paintings, the Frick Collection of New York is inviting viewers to contemplate the age and the art of seduction by the written word. The show brings together a trio of paintings by 17th century Dutch master Johannes Vermeer: the Frick's own "Mistress and Maid," "The Love Letter" on loan from Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, and "Woman Writing a Letter, with her Maid" from the National Gallery of Ireland.
