For travel to many corners of the world, people would rush to watch travel guides and brochures, but sometimes the reason to visit a place can be a book or movie that motivates us, and even that novel or the film may become the best travel guide we have.
Girl with a Pearl Earring
This is the case of the film Girl with a pearl shot by director Peter Webber and starring actors Colin Firth and Scarlett Johansson. The film is set in Delft and presents the relationship that arises between Johannes Vermeer, one of the very great seventeenth-century Flemish painters and their maid who becomes his model painting.
The movie shows a great atmosphere in the city of Delft, like many other Dutch cities urbanistically governed by canals. And it shows us the inside story of these houses still see today when visiting the city.
To make matters worse, in the plot which we were taught the techniques of the painters of the time, how the colors mixed, as selling their works, such as preparing the racks.
In short, for whom travel to Delft I strongly suggest you see the movie, you will increase the desire to make their journey. And if you like art and history, enjoy even more of the story, and almost certainly from Delft end up making a trip to Amsterdam to visit the Rijksmuseum, which houses some of the best works of Vermeer of Delft .
Just remember that you can also enjoy some travel Amsterdam or Europe enjoy taking trips travel Berlin or Paris.
