The movie ‘Girl With A Pearl Earring’ was filmed in 2003.
The star; Scarlett Johansson was made for such a role. Physically, there was a great resemblance.
Even genetically, there was a link.

Vermeer was Dutch, while Scarlett’s father Karsten Johansson is a Danish born architect from Copenhagen. A region that is culturally very similar to Vermeer’s birth place in Holland.
As any student of Fine Art would know, Vermeer was famous for the works he produced by using Egg Tempera paints.

Andrew Wyeth adopted the same technique hundreds of years later.

Stayed at a place to visit the Waterloo battlefield. The folks house was basically where the British line stood. Their daughter went to art school and their graduation picture had to be a famous piece but with their face. Their daughter painted this one and it was a great replica but with her face. Very well done.
