- Johannes Vermeer: SECRETS behind 'The Milkmaid' & 'The Love Letter'. Hi there! Today, we are going to tell you more about Johannes Vermeer. The famous dutch painter Johannes Vermeer (1632-1675) lived and worked in Delft. His work is best known for his tranquil, introverted indoor scenes, his unprecedented use of bright, colorful light and his convincing illusionism. Some of his famous works are The Love Letter, the Little Street, The Milkmaid and Woman Reading a Letter.
In this video, we'll take you deeper into the paintings. What is the story behind the painting? What techniques were used? We cover all the relevant aspects to show you everything there is to know.

Always interesting. So glad we have this technology today to understand the process of Vermeer. Will check out the February 2023 exhibition on Vermeer's works ~
very interesting to see the work done behind the scenes - interesting where the blue colour comes from - sad that such a beautiful colour came from such a volatile place today - very fortunate to see 10 Vermeer Paintings exhibited all together at same time in Dublin, Ireland in our National Gallery -wonderful opportunity - paintings are so beautiful
Amazing. Thank You
lead white (not led). Great curatorial & conservation additions to these glorious works
Pronounced as led.
Fascinating insights......technological archaeology?!
The woman is a Kitchen Maid.
A Milk Maid worked in the dairy with the cows and would not be found in the home.
This figure is merely pouring milk. It does not make her a Milk Maid !
Renzo - Does it really matter whether she's a milk maid or a kitchen maid? You're getting lost in the minutia of the video regarding this painting. It's an original Vermeer.
@@alexsmith5936 I didn't get lost in minutia.
I watched the video.
I made a copy of the original.
I know it very well..
Vermeer did not give it a name.
We do not have either milk maids or kitchen maids as such now.
But in the 1600's they were very common positions and titles.
One would never mistake one for the other.
It matters that the figure in the painting is not a milk maid because she is NOT a milk maid.
If she were slicing bread, we wouldn’t refer to the painting as “The Bread Maid”!
Her milieu is the kitchen.
All of her work is done in the kitchen!
She is a Kitchen Maid!
Eventhough you are correct, but whether you like it or not, it is the most common used title of this painting today. It's more convienient than kitchenmaid because you know right away what picture it is about.
