Frau beim Lesen eines Briefes — Geschichte & Fakten

In einem ruhigen, privaten Moment ist diese junge Frau in das Lesen eines Briefes im Morgenlicht vertieft. Sie trägt immer noch ihre blaue Nachtjacke. Alle Farben in der Komposition sind dem strahlenden Lapislazuli-Blau untergeordnet.

Vermeer hat die Lichtwirkungen mit außergewöhnlicher Präzision festgehalten. Besonders innovativ ist seine Darstellung der Haut der Frau mit einem blassen Grau und die Schatten an der Wand mit hellem Blau.
