This is a 3d rendition my favourite painting by Vermeer.
My goal here was simply to test and improve my modeling, surfacng and lighting skills, and also to hone my observational skill.
Also to get to know this painting better, and there's no better way than to copy it, since you have to intensely study every millimetre of it.
I was not attempting an exact pixel for pixel copy of the painting. The lighting and perspective in the original are not physically correct anyway, Vermeer was more interested in aestheics.
Time taken: Two weeks.
I intend to either do an animaton of this, or make another Vermeer-style character and set up my own scene using this room as the backdrop.
