The story
Griet is a shy girl living in the Dutch Republic in 1665.
Griet works diligently and almost wordlessly in the lowest position of a harsh hierarchy.
As Griet cleans Vermeer's studio, which Catharina never enters, the painter begins to converse with her and encourages her appreciation of painting, light, and colour.
