Description is widely recognized as the single greatest Delft painter. Single figures, usually women, seemingly engaged in everyday tasks have a still life quality about them, yet provide an intimacy in nearly all of Vermeer’s work. His use of light, frequently from a window on the left, both onto fabrics and objects within the setting, as well as reflections, mark his work. The Lacemaker is a wonderful intimate portrait and a fine addition to our Woman and Needlework in Art collection. Measures 17″ x 20″ on 14,16 or 18 mesh mono deluxe needlepoint canvas and all the silk threads needed to complete. Please indicate your mesh preference in the Notes section at Checkout.
