The View of Delft
by Quentin Ritzen and Gérard Blum, translated by Margaret Etall
with Barbara Mitchell, Alexa Romanes, Alexander John, Michael Harbour
Produced by John Powell

'La Vue de Delft' was the Office de Radiodiffusion-Télévision Française entry for the 1966 Italia Prize. It is a nostalgic evocation of a love affair, broken by war and inseparably bound up with the famous painting in the Mauritshuis in The Hague – Vermeer's 'View of Delft'.
