Can you name this Vermeer painting?
Nov. 21st, 2011 09:45 amI've been attempting to discover the title for my favorite Vermeer painting for a couple years, with no luck, so I thought i would post a description and find out if any of my friends could identify it.
The subject of the painting is a young woman, side view facing to the left, wearing a white apron and carrying a white pitcher. She is a little to the right of the painting, with a wall behind her. The wall and the stones beneath ehr feet are sunlit, giving them a slightly creamy gold color (for some reason, this always makes me think that it is early morning in the painting). The wall behind the young woman ends, leaving the upper left corner of the painting open to reveal a background showing a wooden ship with a bright blue sky behind it.
I don't think this is one fo Vermeer's most well-known paintings, but I love the color of the wall and that Vermeer blue sk
