Dear Patrick and All:
Even more interesting would be whether the film features a cittern. Such
an instrument (apparently the same instrument, a tenor with a striped back)
is featured in no fewer than five of Vermeer's paintings.
Yours,
Jim

I had a chance to see a preview of the Johannes Vermeer movie, Girl with a
Pearl Earing, several weeks ago, but due to a bad storm I missed it. I
have since seen the preview, and there are scenes of Vermeer with his
models painting. I was wondering if anyone had seen the movie yet, and
whether any lutes were featured? Either on the soundtrack or being played
by the models.
