Artist
Vincent Monozlay
Medium
Painting - Oil On Canvas
Description
This is an unusual painting in Vermeers oeuvre, and remarkable for its time as a portrait of ordinary houses. The composition is as exciting as it is balanced. The old walls with their bricks, whitewash, and cracks are almost tangible. The location is Vlamingstraat 40-42 in Delft. Vermeers aunt Ariaentgen Claes lived in the house at the right, with her children, from around 1645 until her death in 1670.
