You've seen the original, read the book and watched the movie. Now you can own a piece of history by purchasing the painting. Girl with a Pearl Earring was painted by Dutch artist, Johannes Vermeer, in 1665. Not much is known about Vermeer or the painting, but onlookers and experts can agree on one thing - it is absolutely stunning. After its restoration in 1994, the color has been greatly enhanced giving new life to the painting. Its original name in Dutch is Het Meisje met de Parel . Many critics think that it was never meant to be a portrait and is often referred to as the "Mona Lisa of the North" or the "Dutch Mona Lisa."
