Girl with pearl earring
Girl with pearl earring
(In Dutch: Het Meisje met de Parel)
Date of establishment of work in 1665
Is an oil painting painted in the 17th century by the Dutch painter
Johannes Vermeer. This painting shows the face of a girl wearing a scarf and a pearl. The painting was in the collection of the paintings of the Maurice Museum in The Hague since 1902.
Description:
This painting falls under a category called "Tronie", a Dutch description of the seventeenth century of paintings with faces and shows on these faces some emotions and feelings. The painting depicts a European girl wearing an unconventional dress, an oriental turban, and, uncertainly, wearing a pearly tie.
In 2014, space physicist Vincent Eck (in Dutch:
Vincent Icke) cast doubts on what is the constituent of the claws, and claims that it most likely appears as a refined oval rather than a pearl depending on the large size of the claws and its shape and its bright reflection.
The painting is an oil painting 44.5 cm high and 39 cm wide. The painting is signed with "IVMeer" but not dated. The painting is estimated to have been painted around 1665
After the restoration of the last painting, the delicate color and intimate look of the girl in the painting improved towards the beholder dramatically.
During the restoration process, it was discovered that the painter initially intended to make the background painted dark green instead of the black background currently dotted. This effect was produced by placing a thin layer of transparent coating, called a cocoon. In any case, this green-green lengthening consists of two organic components: the nile and the yellowish-yellow pigment have disappeared.
Property and offer:
Museum of Mauritius in The Hague in 2011
Following the advice of Victor de Storrs, who for years tried to prevent Vermeer from being sold out of the country, archaeologists Arnoldos Andreas de Tome bought the painting from an auction in The Hague in 1881 for 2 Dutch horses and 30 cents for an auction commission EUR 24 per night
"The painting was in bad condition at the time," he said, adding that Di Tomi had no heirs.
He donated the painting and a few other paintings to the Museum of Murchus in 1902.
In 2012, while the Murchus Museum was undergoing expansion and renovation, the painting was exhibited in Japan, at the National Museum of Western Art
In Tokyo, and in 2014-2013 exhibited in the United States at the Museum of World Art in Atlanta, at the Young Museum in San Francisco and in New York in the collection of Frick
In late 2014, the painting was exhibited in Bologna, Italy, and in June 2014 the painting was returned to the Netherlands to the Murchos Museum and decided that the painting would not leave the museum in the future.
Cultural influence:
In the novel, Johannes Vermeer becomes a close friend of a maid named Grete (based on the name of the close friend of Georgia Kendall), who has written a book about the painting. He employs her as an assistant to sit down to draw on her while wearing the Vermeer Girl's Groom Earrings.
Rahih in 2008 with the same name. The actress was Scarlett Johansson's role gret, earring girl with pearl. She ran Scarlett Johansson many awards for this role, including the Golden Globe Award and BAFTA for Best Actress in a Leading Role.
The painting also appears in "St Trinian's," when a group of girls steal the painting to get enough money to keep their school up.
The painting was redrawn by the English street artist Anonymous Banski as a fresco in Bristol, replacing the pearl earring with an alarm box.
The painting was called "The Girl with the Perforated Ear Drum.
