Art code:
910 457 Copy the art code
Sleeping Girl is a work dating from 1657 by the Delft painter Jan Vermeer. The painting, sometimes called Sleeping Drunken Girl at a Table, marks the transition from traditional history painting to the more modern form of genre painting in the oeuvre of the young Dutch master. X-ray studies have shown that there was previously a dog in the doorway and a man in the room behind it.
Technique: oil on canvas
Dimensions: 87,6 × 76,5 cm
Johannes Vermeer (baptised in Delft, 31 October 1632 - buried there, 15 December 1675) was a Dutch painter of the Golden Age.
Vermeer had a preference for timeless, subdued moments. He remains enigmatic because of his inimitable coloring and bewildering light. Vermeer's paintings, mostly genre pieces and a few history pieces, allegories and cityscapes, are distinguished by a subtle use of colour and ideal composition. He sometimes used expensive pigments and had a great preference for ultramarine and lead-tinged yellow.
