In his life, only 36 paintings have been discovered to be painted by him, as he painted carefully and slowly. Before he developed his own style, he was believed to be influenced by Caravaggio, in his incorporation of mythology and religion.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlike other artists during the Baroque period, he mostly painted simple scenes of ordinary life. The simplicity, however, let him achieve some of the greatest masterpieces of all time.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of which is \u201cThe kitchen maid,\u201d which was painted with the most beautiful rendering of the still life and figure in the scene. It is incredible how he managed to achieve this realism and detail with how soft and delicate the painting is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His most well known masterpieces was \u201cGirl with a Pearl Earring.\u201d This painting is my personal favourite of his, as it is truly captivating and has a certain glow about it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
