About the Artist Vermeer was a master at capturing the moods of his subjects, from his atmospheric effects, the glory of his light, the sumptuous warmth of his domestic interior scenes, and the inexplicable sensuality of so many of his works in every genre. Vermeer is best known for the portrait of his maid, 'Girl with a Pearl Earring'. His luminous colors even now shine with surprising glow after so many centuries, and his draftsmanship inspires admiration. He had a taste for the poetic and his mysterious use of symbols are secretive hints and glances into the enigmatic world that lies behind the manufactured one.
