About Johannes Vermeer and Christ in the House of Martha and Mary (1654)

Johannes Vermeer (1632–1675) painted this picture around 1654–1656, at the very start of his career, when he still hoped to work as a history painter. In the Gospel of Luke, Christ gently tells the busy Martha that Mary has chosen the better part by listening to him. Painted in oil on canvas and measuring about 160 x 142 cm, it is in the Scottish National Gallery in Edinburgh.
