Girl with a Pearl Earring

Johannes Vermeer's Girl with a Pearl Earring draws 400,000 annual visitors to the Mauritshuis, earning its 'Dutch Mona Lisa' nickname through luminous technique and the model's unidentified identity. Though it trails The Persistence of Memory in surrealist fame, its cultural impact rivals Mona Lisa's for generating theories about the sitter's gaze.
