Girl with a Pearl Earring (Dutch: Meisje met de parel) is an oil painting by Dutch Golden Age painter Johannes Vermeer, dated c. 1665. Going by various names over the centuries, it became known by its present title towards the end of the 20th century after the large pearl earring worn by the girl portrayed there. The work has been in the collection of the Mauritshuis in The Hague since 1902 & has been the subject of various literary treatments. in 2006, the Dutch public selected it as the most beautiful painting in the Netherlands. Girl with a Pearl Earring represents a young woman in a dark shallow space, an intimate setting that draws the viewer's attention exclusively on her. She wears a blue & gold turban, the titular pearl earring, & a gold jacket with a visible white collar beneath. Unlike many of Vermeer's subjects, she is not concentrating on a daily chore & unaware of her viewer. Instead, caught in a fleeting moment, she turns her head over her shoulder, meeting the viewer's gaze with her eyes wide & lips parted as if about to speak. Her enigmatic expression coupled with the mystery of her identity has led some to compare her to the equivocal subject in Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa (c. 1503-19). As the Mauritshuis building underwent renovation in 2012, Girl with the Pearl Earring traveled to Japan, Italy, & the United States. It drew crowds in each location, attesting to its now firm place in audience regard. When Girl returned to the Netherlands in 2014, the Mauritshuis announced it would no longer lend out the painting, assuring visitors that the museum's main attraction would always be on view in its home.
