Painted around 1665, Girl with a Pearl Earring by Johannes Vermeer is one of the most beloved and enigmatic portraits in European art. The girl’s mysterious expression and glowing skin have earned it the nickname Mona Lisa of the North.
🤳 The Modern Reimagination:
In this rework, our girl isn’t just turning heads — she’s holding a coffee cup, rocking a 'Girl Boss' tattoo, and radiating self-made chic.
🧠 About the Artist and Painting:
Vermeer only produced around 36 paintings in his lifetime. The “pearl” in this painting may not be a real pearl at all — some believe it’s tin or glass. The piece wasn’t famous until it was rediscovered in the 20th century, rising to global fame thanks to books and films.
