Tim Jenison, a Texas-based inventor, attempts to solve one of the greatest mysteries in all art: How did 17th century Dutch Master Johannes Vermeer manage to paint so photo-realistically – 150 years before the invention of photography?

Spanning a decade, Jenison's adventure takes him to Delft, Holland, where Vermeer painted his masterpieces, to the North coast of Yorkshire to meet artist David Hockney, and eventually to Buckingham Palace to see the Queen's Vermeer.
