Art lovers rejoice! The Mauritshuis has unveiled a groundbreaking new way to experience Johannes Vermeer’s iconic painting, “Girl with a Pearl Earring” (1665). Thanks to a collaboration with Hirox, a lens company specializing in high-resolution imaging, art enthusiasts can now explore this masterpiece in unparalleled detail.

The new 108-gigapixel scan of the painting allows viewers to zoom in and examine every minute detail of the artwork. From the brushstrokes to the texture of the canvas, this high-tech reproduction offers a level of clarity that is simply unmatched. In fact, the image is more than ten times larger than the previous version, with a resolution of 1.3 microns per pixel.

But the experience doesn’t stop there. The interactive site created by Hirox and Tuur allows users to take a virtual tour of the painting, highlighting Vermeer’s masterful use of light and shadow. From the subtle reflections in the sitter’s eyes to the delicate brushwork on the pearl earring, every aspect of the artwork is brought to life in stunning detail.

Whether you’re a seasoned art historian or simply a fan of Vermeer’s work, this new scan offers a unique opportunity to appreciate “Girl with a Pearl Earring” in a whole new way. And if you happen to be in The Hague, you can still view the original painting in person at The Mauritshuis.

So take a closer look at this 17th-century masterpiece and discover the beauty and intricacy of Vermeer’s work like never before. Art has never been more immersive and accessible than with this groundbreaking new technology.
