I see it more as perspective. This is a well-written and magnificent fictional novel about a historical exquisite painting. After reading this book I did feel a little inspired. I began observing the clouds, the sun shine, light reflecting off of mirrors, and sometimes even people I know or don’t know. I am no artist. I do not have artistic visions nor do I see a complete story, complexity or message behind a painting or portrait. This novel has a lot to do with perspective. I don’t believe Vermeer loved Griet while many others do. I feel he appreciated having someone who could understand him and his art. Catharina loved him, but she could never understand his works of art even though she knew his paintings were beautiful. I believe Vermeer did love Catharina, he wished she would understand art like Griet did, but she couldn’t; which is why he didn’t paint her. He learned a bit from Griet as she learned plenty from him. He was a quicker and better artist because of her. That’s why he agreed on painting
