Woman with a Pearl Necklace by Johannes Vermeer is a seventeenth-century Northern European painting. Painted in oils on canvas Johannes Vermeer portrayed a young Dutch woman most likely of upper-class-descent dressing herself with two yellow ribbons pearl earrings and a pearl necklace. As a very popular artist of the 17th and 18th centuries the Dutch Golden Age Vermeer depicted many women in similar circumstances within interior domestic scenes.
