Johannes Vermeer was influenced by several artists, particularly the Dutch painter Carel Fabritius, whose work in chiaroscuro and innovative compositions can be seen in Vermeer's early pieces. He was also inspired by the broader movement of Dutch Golden Age painting, including the techniques of artists like Rembrandt and Frans Hals. Additionally, the use of light and color in Italian Baroque painting, especially the works of Caravaggio, likely impacted Vermeer’s style and approach to depicting domestic scenes.
The three variations of the international Baroque style are the Roman Baroque, which emphasized grandeur and emotional intensity, often seen in the works of architects like Bernini; the Spanish Baroque, characterized by dramatic expression and intricate details, as exemplified in the works of artists like Velázquez; and the Dutch Baroque, which focused on realism and domestic scenes, with notable painters such as Rembrandt and Vermeer. Each variation reflects regional influences and cultural contexts, showcasing the diverse manifestations of Baroque art and architecture across Europe.
