This painting, by René van den Berg, brings a contemporary twist to the classic theme of 'The Girl with the Pearl Earring'. The piece is an oil painting in the Californian Impressionist style, with the female figure depicted sideways against a vivid background of a rugged coastline. The girl's characteristic headscarf and earring are clearly visible and rendered with detailed precision, paying homage to Vermeer's original works. The background consists of soft, undulating patterns of the sea and sky, flowing together in harmony through circular brushstrokes that capture both the movement of the waves and the swirling air. The texture of her clothing is rich and colourful, contrasting with the cooler tones of the surroundings. Light plays across her face and reflects on her pearl earring, adding a sparkle of brightness to the predominantly blue and green palette.
