The Vermeer show is terrific. It is apparently the largest collection of
his paintings ever put together in a single show. It runs to 11 February
1996. The show is very crowded and you must be ticketed. However, if you
go on weekdays, you are likely to be ticketed there within a few hours.
You can call 202-842-6706 for more information.

You should also see the Winslow Homer exhibit which is ticketed on
weekends, but not on weekdays, the Whistler in Japan exhibit at the
Freer, and the Indian wall and floor paintings at the Sackler.

Have fun :}
