View of houses in Delft (the alley)
Date:

Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, The NetherlandsDimensions:
44 x 54,3In the painting View of houses in the city of Delft or sometimes also Alley in Delft, we can see two houses - the more dominant three-story brick building on the right and a smaller house on the left, of which we can only see a part.
Jan Vermeer also captured four people, a woman tinkering with lace in the doorway of a large house, two children playing in the street in front of him, and a woman bending over a vessel of water in the passage between the houses. The location that
Vermeer immortalized on canvas is still a matter of conjecture. Some researchers agree that it may even be several places combined together. The original green shade of the vegetation on the left building has changed to bluish over the years - this is probably due to the mixing of blue and yellow, the latter color of which seems to have faded over time.

Johannes, Jan or Johan Vermeer (1632-1675). Dutch painter. He enjoyed painting scenes from life and common situations in the households of townspeople. During his lifetime, he did not become famous and in his time, he was rather a provincial painter. He worked carefully and slowly; he loved to work with light and used brilliant colours with expensive pigments. His art was rediscovered in the 19th century and he has since slowly become a recognized and sought-after painter. He allegedly worked with the obscura camera to achieve true perspective and composition. Often his paintings depict one or two figures at the window. His most famous work is considered to be
Girl with a Pearl Earring.
