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 13.5" x 16" on 14 or 18 mesh mono deluxe needlepoint canvas. Please indicate your mesh preference in the Notes section at Checkout. We are happy to select appropriate wool, pearle cotton or silk threads to help complete. Available in one larger size as well.
