I am fascinated by fact that the upper right is where someone painted a painting.
It feels like a flex when painters paint paintings inside their paintings.
Had a wee gander at the entry about the painting on Wikipedia, and learned that that part had been painted over after Vermeer's death, only to be revealed by restoration in 2021!
Exciting, thanks.
I thought the painting was a window and wondered why it wasn't titled "huge baby stands outside window during the apocalypse"
Yo dawg... We heard you like paintings...
Fascinated by what it is saying to us about the rest of the painting, and the beholder.
Some story going on here!
There's always a lot going on with Vermeer. Often female subjects and the lower classes.
Always a story and suspense.
