Who is Vermeer? Johannes Vermeer (1632-1675) was born in Delft, The Netherlands. He lived there his whole life. He married in 1653 with Catharina Bolnes and they got 15 children together. Vermeer took a lot of time to complete a painting, on average about four months. While he was perceived as a good painter by his contemporaries in Delft, he was largely unknown outside his hometown. Vermeer was familiar with the works of some other Dutch painters, but his work shows little influence from works by foreign artists.
