The painting of Jan Vermeer (Delft, October 31, 1632 – Delft, December 15, 1675). Allegory of painting, offers a variety of plans to interpret the art and technique of painting, in addition to the object represented. It is a relationship that for thousands of years by the mutants technological support, we always use: the cave, the totem, the television, the phone, the billboard. It’s almost natural look and contemplate. Of course, the artist takes a step forward in design and creation.
