Vermeer strebte nach Vollkommenheit

Vermeer strebte nach Vollkommenheit in seiner Malerei, so dass oft gerade mal vier Bilder im Jahr entstanden. Der Vater von elf Kinder hatte daher auch gegen finanzielle Not anzukämpfen, die in seinen letzten Lebensjahren zunahm. Bereits nach seinem Tod geriet Jan Vermeer in Vergessenheit. Erst Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts lernte man die Qualität seiner Bilder wieder zu schätzen.
