The Artist Vermeer And His Mystical Picture Of The Girl With A Pearl Earring
Of Johannes Vermeer’s character there is little known fact. One clue has survived the centuries. It is in a letter his wife wrote telling of his depressed state and despair because he could not properly care for the family. Art critics have tried to learn more about him through his painting such as the girl with a pearl earring and other works he painted, but had no success.
