This digital artwork shows an intriguing mix of classical and modern elements, inspired by Vermeer's "Girl with a Pearl Earring". The portrait has been updated with a contemporary flair: the girl wears a colourful turban with vibrant shades of blue, yellow and green, combined with a voluminous, colourful knitted jumper that surrounds the traditional white collar. Behind her, dramatic, stylised flowers appear, giving the scene a baroque and almost surreal feel. The contrast between the bright colours of her clothes and the monochrome flowers creates a striking visual effect, while the subtle lighting accentuates her soft, elegant features. The addition of modern materials such as the knitted jumper, together with the classic pose and style, creates a powerful dialogue between past and present.
