There is a ton of debate on the identity of the artwork "Girl With a Pearl Earring," and although years have passed, there is no exact answer to the mystery. However, the reading passage presents three possible figures. In the listening passage, the lecturer is quick to indicate that there are some significant flaws in the writer's claim. The professor believes that the girl may have been a stranger. He addresses the trouble in detail with each point made in the reading text.
To begin with, the most likely candidate is Maria Vermeer, the eldest daughter of the painting itself. The author explains that masterpieces focus on daily scenes, so the possibility of painting his daughter is not impossible. Some professionals in the same field, regardless, stand in firm opposition to this claim. For example, in the listening, the professor states that his figures are diverse and include a wide range of women, from maids to mistresses. Thus, there would be no reason to submit to a confined person like his daughter.
One group of scholars, represented by the writer, emphasizes that Pieter Van Ruijiven could be a possible choice since she requested a painting as a wedding gift. Of course, though, not all experts in this field believe this is accurate. Again, the speaker addresses this matter when he argues that it would be unusual to ask the daughter of his patron to dress up in unconventional clothes with pearl earrings when she has grown up in a conservative style. With the contradicting cultural and religious beliefs reflected in the notes observed in the painting, the possibility of the woman being Pieter Van Rujiven is incredibly low.
Finally, the author wraps his argument by positing that the girl was an imaginary character since the characteristics are parallel to the thriller genre. Unsurprisingly, the professor points out that Johannes Vermeer is known to draw those he observes rather than being a virtual witness.
To summarize, while the article introduces three possible theories for the identity of the infamous artwork, the lecturer effectively challenges each one, implying that the theories cannot be accurate. It is evident that both passages will have trouble finding common ground on this subject.
