Peter Webber
Peter Webber( born 1968) is a British director who is best known for his debut feature film" Girl with a Pearl Earring" and" Hannibal Rising".
Study of a Young Woman
Study of a Young Woman( also known as Portrait of a Young Woman, or Girl with a Veil) is a painting by the Dutch artist Johannes Vermeer, completed between 1665 and 1667, and now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.
The painting was painted around the same time as the better- known" Girl with a Pearl Earring", and has a near- identical size.
Because of this, and its proximity in tone and composition, it is sometimes considered to be either a variant or pendant painting( counterpart) of" Girl with a Pearl Earring".
The subjects of both paintings wear pearl earrings, have scarves draped over their shoulders, and are shown in front of a plain black background.
In addition, it is likely that the creation of both works involved the use of some optical device, such as a camera obscura or mirror, as the Hockney – Falco thesis speculates.
We Have Only One Life
We Have Only One Life  is a 1958 Greek comedy film directed by George Tzavellas.
Girl with a Pearl Earring (film)
Girl with a Pearl Earring is a 2003 romantic drama film directed by Peter Webber.
The screenplay was adapted by screenwriter Olivia Hetreed, based on the 1999 novel of the same name by Tracy Chevalier.
Scarlett Johansson stars as Griet, a young 17th- century servant in the household of the Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer( played by Colin Firth) at the time he painted" Girl with a Pearl Earring"( 1665) in the city of Delft in Holland.
Other cast members include Tom Wilkinson, Cillian Murphy, and Judy Parfitt.
Hetreed read the novel before its publication, and her husband's production company convinced Chevalier to sell the film rights.
Initially, the production was to feature Kate Hudson as Griet with Mike Newell directing.
Hudson withdrew shortly before filming began, however, and the film was placed in hiatus until the hire of Webber, who re-initiated the casting process.
In his feature film debut, Webber sought to avoid employing traditional characteristics of the period film drama.
In a 2003 interview with IGN, he said," What I was scared of is ending up with something that was like" Masterpiece Theatre",[ that] very polite Sunday evening BBC kind of thing, and I[ was] determined to make something quite different from that ..."
