"View of Houses in Delft," also known as "The Little Street," painted by Johannes Vermeer around 1658, captures a tranquil scene of everyday life in Delft. The painting depicts a row of brick houses with women and children engaged in daily activities. Vermeer's masterful use of light, shadow, and detail highlights the textures of the buildings and creates a serene, intimate atmosphere. This work exemplifies Vermeer's ability to elevate a simple street scene into a timeless and compelling piece of art.
