Girl with a Pearl Earring Item # 1937622 Johannes Vermeer While Johannes Vermeer is best known for The Girl With The Pearl Earring, this Dutch master produced several beloved pieces during his short life. Johannes Vermeer wall art allows you to bring a sense of harmony to the walls of any space. Characteristics of Johannes Vermeer wall art Johannes Vermeer (1632-1675) was a Dutch Baroque painter. Born in Delft, in southern Holland, although he was relatively unknown in his time. Art historians suggest he painted around 45 pieces in total, of which only 36 survive today. Vermeer worked within the walled city of Delft and sold paintings to local patrons and nobility. However, it was not until the 19th century that he achieved wider recognition. His paintings typically focused on domestic interiors, with subjects including scenes of everyday life, such as reading, playing instruments, or performing housekeeping tasks. However, there is little ordinary or everyday about his technique. Perhaps the most interesting aspect of Vermeer's work is his use of light. He often used a single source of light balanced against dark shadows to achieve an incredible sense of realism within his work. When added to the meticulous details and perspective in his painting, his works have an intimate and almost photographic quality. While Vermeer often used a limited color palette, he chose rich hues with a deep sense of compatibility. The result was compositions with an incredible balance that added to his masterful use of light, which partly explains his present-day popularity. How to choose Johannes Vermeer art for your space Classical art, such as the work of 17th-century painters like Johannes Vermeer, can work well with a wide range of decor styles. These pieces are a must-have for fans of Vermeer's exquisite technique and fine details and anyone who wants to bring a sense of order to their walls.

Jan Vermeer (Johannes Vermeer), Delft 1632 - 1675 Briefschreiberin und Dienstmagd / Lady Writing a Letter, with her Maid, Detail (um 1670) The National Gallery of Ireland, Dublin Considered one of the principal Dutch painters, Johannes Vermeer specialised in genre scenes, particular those depicting women in domestic settings. Vermeer’s work displays an unprecedented level of artistic mastery in its illusion of reality. His figures are often quiet and inactive, which contributes to the solemn and mysterious atmosphere of his paintings. Vermeer’s oeuvre is unusually small. Probably as few as thirty-four pictures have survived. A Lady Writing a Letter is one of Vermeer’s most outstanding compositions, and his most ambitious depiction of the theme of letter writing. While a maidservant is staring out of the window, her mistress is writing an epistle. In the foreground on the floor lie a red seal, a stick of sealing wax and an object which is either a letter with a crumpled wrapper or a letter-writing manual, a standard aid for personal correspondence at the time. In either case, the objects seem to have been thrown down by the lady in some agitation. During his lifetime, Vermeer did not sell A Lady Writing a Letter. After his death, his widow gave it and another painting to a local baker to cover her costs for bread. Source: The National Gallery of Ireland

Vermeer oltre la ragazza con l’orecchino di perla: una galleria per scoprire i capolavori di questo artista
Johannes Vermeer (1632 – 1675) was a Dutch painter famous for his domestic interior scenes of middle class life, probably the second most famous Dutch painter of the 17th century after Rembranndt (a period which is better known as the Dutch Golden Age for its astonishing cultural and artistic achievements). His paintings are admired for their transparent colours, well thought out composition and brilliant use of light. Vermeer was baptized in Delft in 1632, the son of a silk worker. He stayed in Delft all of his life and was buried in Oude Kerk (the Old Church) in Delft. Little is known about his life - he married Catharina Bolenes in 1653. In that same year he became a member of the Guild of Saint Luke, a trade association for painters. The guild's records make it clear that Vermeer did not pay the usual admission fee. Register of the Guild of Saint Luke with Vermeer' name at number 78, Carl Fabritius at 75 and Pieter de Hooch at 80 It was a year of plague, war and economic crisis; Vermeer was not alone in experiencing difficult financial circumstances. In 1654 the city suffered the terrible explosion known as the Delft Thunderclap, which destroyed a large section of the city - one of Delft's powder magazines exploded and devastated a large part of the city. View of Delft after the Explosion of 1654 by Egbert van der Poel oil on wood 36.2 x 49.5 cm In 1657 he might have found a patron in the local art collector Pieter van Ruijven, who lent him some money. In 1662 Vermeer was elected head of the guild and was re-elected in 1663, 1670, and 1671, evidence that he was considered an established craftsman among his peers. Vermeer worked slowly, probably producing three paintings a year, and on order. Later, in 1662 and 1669, he was chosen to preside over the guild. Vermeer did earn a meagre income as an art dealer rather than through selling his paintings. Sometimes he even had to pay his debts to local food stores with a painting. In 1672 a severe economic downturn (the "Year of Disaster”) struck the Netherlands, after Louis XIV and a French army invaded the Dutch Republic from the south (the Franco-Dutch War). During the Third Anglo-Dutch War an English fleet and two allied German bishops attacked the country from the east causing more destruction. Many people panicked; courts, theatres, shops and schools were closed. Five years passed before circumstances improved. In the summer of 1675 Vermeer borrowed money in Amsterdam, using his mother-in-law’s backing as a surety. In December 1675 Vermeer fell into a ‘frenzy’ and died within two days. He was buried in the Protestant Old Church (Oude Kerk) in Delft on 15 December 1675. Catharina Bolnes attributed her husband's death to the stress of financial pressures. The collapse of the art market damaged Vermeer's business as both a painter and an art dealer. She, having to raise 11 children, asked the High Court to relieve her of debts owed to Vermeer's creditors. The house, with eight rooms on the first floor, was filled with paintings, drawings, clothes, chairs, and beds. In his atelier there were two chairs, two painter's easels, three palettes, ten canvases, a desk, an oak pull table, a small wooden cupboard with drawers and "rummage not worthy being itemized". Nineteen of Vermeer's paintings were bequeathed to Catharina and her mother. The widow sold two more paintings to Hendrick van Buyten, the baker, in order to pay off a substantial debt for delivered bread. Vermeer had been a respected artist in Delft, but almost unknown outside his home town. The fact that a local patron, Pieter van Ruijven, purchased much of his output reduced the possibility of his fame spreading. Several factors contributed to his limited oeuvre. Vermeer never had any pupils and therefore there was no school of Vermeer. His family obligations with so many children may have taken up much of his time as would acting as both an art-dealer and inn-keeper in running the family businesses. His time spent serving as head of the guild and his extraordinary precision as a painter may have also limited his output. After his death Vermeer was soon forgotten. His paintings were sometimes sold bearing the name of another painter to raise their value. Only very recently has Vermeer been recognised as one of the great artists - in 1866 art historian Théophile Thoré made a statement to this effect, attributing 76 paintings to Vermeer, a number that was soon lowered by others. At the beginning of the twentieth century rumours ran rampant that there were yet undiscovered Vermeer paintings. Very few paintings of Vermeer are known today. Only 35 to 40 works that are attributed to him do exist (views on authencity of some works differ).
