Girl With A Pearl Earring

Vermeer is a favorite of mine. His work is so saturated with light and color that I want to soak it all in.

Girl With A Pearl Earring is the only painting I know that has been turned into both a novel and a movie.






















I am currently reading the novel and enjoying it. It isn't moving quickly but the tension and intrigue are beautiful. As soon as I'm done I'll watch the movie with Scarlett Johanson and Colin Firth.
