Vermeer’s Cupid Reappears

May 7, 2019
Vermeer's Girl Reading a Letter by an Open Window

Vermeer’s Girl Reading a Letter by an Open Window (before restoration)

It is amazing what modern technology can uncover.  Now it is up to the conservators to bring it back for all of us to enjoy — just as the artist intended.  What would be interesting to learn is who covered up cupid and why.
