VERMEER VAN DELFT, Jan
(b. 1632, Delft, d. 1675, Delft)
Jan or Johannes Vermeer is one of the great Dutch ……………………… of the 17th century. He was born in 1632 in Delft where he lived and worked all his life. His paintings are admired for the ……………………… with which he captured effects of light and colour andfor the poetic quality of his images. His career is enigmatic and there are not many contemporary references to him in official …………………… . We don’t know much about his apprenticeship as an artist. His teacher may have been Leonaert Bramer, a Delft artist who was a witness at Vermeer's marriage, or the painter Carel Fabritius of Delft. Another possible influence was the painter HendrickTerbrugghen. We know that in 1653 he entered the painters' guild in Delft where he was elected …………………… some years later.

It is difficult to fit his other paintings into a convincing chronology, but his work …………………… into three clear phases. Two works ………………………… the first phase: Christ in the House of Mary and Martha and Diana and her Companions. Both of them are probably from a year or two before The Procuress. They are very different from Vermeer's other works in their large scale and their subjectmatter. In the central part of his career Vermeer painted images of ………………… life. The majority show one or two figures in a room engaged in domestic or recreational tasks. The predominant colours are yellow, blue, and grey. Another painting of this period is The Artist's Studio in which Vermeer shows a back view of a painter, perhaps an enigmatic self-portrait. In the third and …………………… phase...
