Jan Vermeer (b. Delft 1632 - d. Delft, 1675), Dutch Baroque painter also known as Johannes van der Meer van Delft.
Only 35 of Vermeer's canvases have survived. In his works, he recorded the effects of light with a subtlety, delicacy, and purity of color that probably never have been surpassed. [1] His most frequent subjects were genre, landscape and intimate interiors often with the solitary figure of a woman.
He is considered one of the greatest Dutch painters.
