Woman Holding a Balance ^en

mid: /m/08v1_q notable type: /visual_art/artwork notable for: /visual_art/artwork on the web: wikipedia.org

Woman Holding a Balance, also called Woman Testing a Balance, is an oil painting by Dutch Baroque artist Johannes Vermeer. At one time the painting, completed 1662-1663, was known as Woman Weighing Gold, but closer evaluation has determined that the balance in her hand is empty. Opinions on the theme and symbolism of the painting differ, with the woman alternatively viewed as a symbol of holiness or earthiness. Wikipedia [ - ]
