Most of Vermeer's paintings depicted simple figures, often women, doing daily tasks in a typically Dutch house. These paintings are considered "genre paintings", portraying scenes from everyday life. Some of the most famous examples are The kitchen maid (c. 1600), showing a woman pouring milk, and The girl with the pearl earring(c. 1665), showing an ordinary Dutch woman.
