Master of light, Johannes Vermeer is among the most renowned of the Dutch Golden Age painters for his ability to capture everyday 17-century life with unparalleled detail. Fascinated with domesticity and adept at depicting quiet scenes, Vermeer took a scientific approach to his paintings, carefully studying the effects of light to achieve realism, while simultaneously imbuing each work with layers of symbolism. For example, his most recognized work, Girl with a Pearl Earring, represents a mixing of Eastern and Western cultures through trade routes, the clashing of wealth and status, and the allure of foreign beauty. This masterpiece is widely appropriated in popular culture and since its creation has inspired novels, parodies, and even a famous film of the same name.
