In order to support her family, 17 year old Griet becomes a maid in the house of Johannes Vermeer and soon attracts the master painter's attention. Although worlds apart in upbringing and social standing, Vermeer recognises her intuitive understanding of his work and slowly draws her into his mysterious world of art and passion. The result will be one of the greatest paintings ever created...but at what cost? Archer Street (Girl) Ltd 2003
