Johannes Vermeer

Dutch, 1632–1675

Johannes Vermeer (1632–1675), noto anche come Jan Vermeer, è stato un pittore olandese che si è concentrato su scene di interni domestici che rappresentano la vita della classe media. Ha vissuto a Delft, ha lavorato lentamente con pigmenti costosi e ha prodotto relativamente pochi dipinti, mantenendosi principalmente come mercante d'arte. Durante la sua vita ha ottenuto un successo moderato a livello locale, ma non era ricco, e sua moglie è rimasta indebitata dopo la sua morte. L'opera di Vermeer è caduta nell'oscurità per quasi due secoli prima di essere riscoperta nel XIX secolo, e oggi 34 dipinti sono universalmente attribuiti a lui.
