Deroo won international fame with her intriguing, meticulous photos, devoid of human presence, of the interiors of offices, hotels, public buildings, restaurants and homes. For the Rijksmuseum she accumulated, in the same way and over a period of nearly 10 years, an impressive period document of the new Rijksmuseum under construction. The photos of the museum, which is steadily inching toward its re-opening, bear her unmistakable stamp.
