    /// His “Girl With a Pearl Earring”— iconic.

    Vermeer clearly had cravings hedonic.

    “Let’s just keep things Platonic,”

    she sighed (in tones sardonic).

    Thus destroying his dream embryonic.

    I think I’m in love with Scarlett Johansson, yet I’ve never seen that movie.

    It’s the kind of aside glance you expect to see in a sitcom, with comedic hijinks and a laugh track.

    She insisted on a blue bandage after the clumsy ear piercing professional made her bleed like a stuck pig.

    Who is Vermeer? I thought that portrait was the work of Banksy.

    “No cause for alarm, my dear..”/

    Said he. (He’d arrived from the rear.)/

    “I’ve brought brushes and paint/

    And my intentions ain’t/

    What you fear: I’m intrigued by your ear.”

    Girl with a Pearl Earring

    Paste (including the quote marks) 

    "Category:Earrings in art" Wikimedia 

    (syntax supported by the Google, Bing, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, Ecosia, Brave, and Yandex search engines) in the browser address bar (or search for it using one of those search engines) and choose the first Category: found, and once there find the text string 13.05, and click its link for info and links that point to more info about this roughly jumbo envelope size painting (Description points to the painting’s Wikipedia page). 

    Again, a larger strip image is also shown by merely clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s MASTERPIECE #2465 (June 7, 2020) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment. I have added a comment there pointing to the blog entry with my comment pointing to info about this artist I used to point to here. So far, 8 works by him have been used here (11 times total, including this and 2 prior repeats), the June 8, 2020, strip being its first use. The July 31, 2023, strip has his latest here (another repeat, when Mr. Melcher was in Ireland last year).

    We I got to see this painting in The Hague, the skin just glowed. I got the feeling her cheek would give way if pressed.

    Some comments from 6/8/2020 posting:

    BE THIS GUY: Local fashion designer lent the model the turban hoping to get some free publicity. It didn’t workout the way he hoped.

    Strob: “I have no idea what happened to the bowl of cherries.”

    Strob: ♫“You can leave your earring on…”♫

    Calvins Brother: ZZ TOP: Pearl Necklace!

    rmremail: Oh, I thought the shorts were wrapped around her hair

    Snoopy_Fan: His next painting, Girl With a Nose Ring, was not as popular.

    Call me Ishmael: He completed the series with “Girl with a Tongue-stud”.

    Call me Ishmael: “Excuse me, Mister Vermeer / but must you approach from the rear? / The things that a girl / must do for a pearl / are growing exceedingly queer…”
