The Lacemaker (after Vermeer)
CopySalvador Dalí1955

About this painting
A 1955 copy of Vermeer's Lacemaker painted by Salvador Dalí inside the Louvre, in front of the original, after he had successfully petitioned the museum for permission to do so. Dalí treated the small panel as a long-running obsession; in the same year he produced his Paranoiac-Critical Study of Vermeer's Lacemaker. The painting belongs to the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
