"Girl with a Pearl Earring" is one of the most famous paintings in the world, often referred to as the "Mona Lisa of the North." Painted around 1665, it depicts a young girl wearing an exotic dress, an oriental turban, and an improbably large pearl earring. The painting is renowned for its captivating use of light and color, as well as the enigmatic expression of the girl, who seems to be caught in a fleeting moment, turning her head over her shoulder to gaze at the viewer.
The true identity of the girl remains a mystery, and there are no definitive records about who she was. Some art historians speculate that she might have been Martin
's daughter or a servant in his household, while others believe she could be a model or an idealized figure.
The painting gained widespread popularity and intrigue, especially after the publication of Tracy Chevalier's historical novel "Girl with a Pearl Earring" in 1999, which was later adapted into a film in 2003. The novel and film imagine a fictional story behind the creation of the painting, portraying the girl as a maid in Martin's household who becomes his muse.
Auch bei diesem „grafischen Erzeugnis“ von mir darf man zu Recht die Frage stellen: „ist das überhaupt Kunst?“
Wenn das Vorlagenmotiv das Bild von Vermeer ist, könnte es sich doch um reine Nachahmerei handeln, oder?
Richtig ist, ich habe streng die Vorgaben von Kasimir Malewitsch für den Suprematismus genutzt, also die Bildsprache besteht aus den Grundfarben und Grundformen, diese, sagen wir mal sinnvoll genutzt, um ein konkretes Porträt zu erzeugen. Trotzdem ist es abstrakt, dies durch den Bezug auf den Ursprung.
