Jan Vermeer (b. Delft 1632 - d. Delft, 1675), Dutch Barroque 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]

He is considered one of the greatest Dutch painters.
