About the original artwork

Woman Reading a Letter

This reproduction on canvas of Woman Reading a Letter by Johannes Vermeer is made with the greatest possible care to ensure that the colours are very close to the original painting that is hanging in the Rijksmuseum. Enjoying a quiet, private moment, this young woman is absorbed in reading a letter in the morning light. She is still wearing her blue night jacket. All of the colours in the composition are secondary to its radiant lapis lazuli blue. Vermeer recorded the effects of light with extraordinary precision. Particularly innovative is his rendering of the woman's skin with pale grey, and the shadows on the wall using light blue.
