THE ART
of listening
The Mauritshuis is home to the best
Dutch paintings from the Golden Age
. One
sold in the museum is this full colo
ur printed speaker with the picture
of their products being
of one of it’s masterpieces by
Johannes Vermeer. And if this prin
ting quality works for paintings wha
t can it do for your promotion?
Girl with a Pearl Earring is Vermeer’
s most famous painting. It is not a
portrait, but a ‘tronie’ –
a painting of an imaginary figure.
Tronies depict a certain type or char
acter; in this case a girl in
exotic dress, wearing an oriental
turban and an improbably large pear
l in her ear.
