Jan Vermeer. Girl with a Pearl Earring. c Oil on canvas. Mauritshuis, the Hague, Netherlands. Girl With a Pearl Earring by Tracy Chevalier

The Author: Tracy Chevalier Born: 19 October 1962 in Washington, DC. Education: BA in English, Oberlin College, Ohio, MA in creative writing, University of East Anglia, Norwich, England, 1994.

Why did Chevalier write about the girl in Vermeer’s painting? I have had a copy of that painting for a long time. I love it because it is so beautiful and mysterious. The expression on the girl’s face is ambiguous – sometimes she looks happy, sometimes sad, sometimes innocent, sometimes seductive. I was always curious about what she was thinking, and one day I wondered what Vermeer did to her to make her look like that. I began to understand that the painting is more than a picture of the girl, but also a portrait of the relationship between the painter and the model. I thought there must be a story behind her look, but when I found out that we don’t know who the model for the painting was, I realized I would have to make up the story myself. publisher&utm_source=t.co&utm_medium=on.ted.com-static&utm_campaign=&awesm=on.ted.com_TChevalierhttp:// publisher&utm_source=t.co&utm_medium=on.ted.com-static&utm_campaign=&awesm=on.ted.com_TChevalier
