Comment
The Lacemaker (De kantwerkster) is a painting by Johannes Vermeer painted between 1669 and 1671, exhibited at the Musée du Louvre in Paris (oil on canvas, 24.5 × 21 cm).The painting depicts a lace-maker absorbed in her work. The girl stands out against a white wall, probably because the artist sought to eliminate all distractions around the central image. (Source : www.wikipedia.org)
