Diary (Johannes Vermeer: ​​Girl with a Pearl Earring) - Flame Tree Publishing

Part of the exciting and luxurious Flame Tree notebook series. Combining high-quality production with stunning artwork, the covers are printed on foil in five colours, embossed, and then foil-pressed. They are incredibly practical: a rear pocket for receipts and scraps, two bookmarks, and a sturdy magnetic side flap. Perfect for personal use and an eye-catching gift. This example is based on Vermeer's “Girl with a Pearl”.

Great portrait master Johannes Vermeer was a key figure of the Dutch Golden Age. Girl with a Pearl presents a fresh face of a young woman, simply yet strikingly adorned with a turban and a luminous pearl. Her intimate and direct gaze enhances the portrait's energy and balances the dark, subdued colour palette. An enigmatic and seductive atmosphere swirls around her, while the subject remains forever still, allowing the viewer to admire her.

Exceptional titles and a very wide range of authors are the hallmark of Flame Tree Publishing.
