Jan Vermeer painted “Girl with a Pearl Earring” with his trademark realism, skillfully applied color, and sparkling highlights. Little is known about the painting, sometimes called “the Dutch Mona Lisa,” or the painter Vermeer (1632 – 1675), who created very expressive interior scenes of everyday life. Despite the fact that Vermeer is known to have painted only 35 paintings, he is regarded as one of the greatest artists of the Dutch Golden Age.
Dutch artist Jan Vermeer (1632 – 1675) was known for his lifelike works and exceptional command of light. Vermeer, initially a historical and genre artist, painted remarkably expressive interior scenes which depicted daily life with dignity and grace. His strikingly realistic work was imbued with nearly microscopic detail, and sparkling highlights called pointillés. Vermeer, who only produced 35 paintings, is regarded as one of the Dutch Golden Age’s greatest artists.
