Description
Signed Vermeer “Girl with a Pearl Earring” Print — Inscribed by Andrew Graham-Dixon
A beautifully framed reproduction of Johannes Vermeer’s Girl with a Pearl Earring, personally signed and inscribed on the reverse by the eminent art historian and broadcaster Andrew Graham-Dixon.
This is not offered as a decorative print alone, but as a signed art-historical collectible connected to one of the most significant modern reinterpretations of Vermeer’s work.
Art-Historical Significance
In his recent writing and lectures, Andrew Graham-Dixon has advanced the influential theory that the sitter in Girl with a Pearl Earring may be Magdalena Vermeer, the artist’s daughter — a proposal that has reshaped contemporary discussion around this iconic image.
The handwritten inscription on the reverse directly references this identification, making this piece a tangible artefact from an important moment in modern Vermeer scholarship.
Most signatures by Graham-Dixon exist on books; signed visual display pieces of this nature are far less commonly encountered, particularly those directly tied to a specific interpretative argument.
The Piece
• High-quality reproduction of Girl with a Pearl Earring
• Classic framed presentation, ready to hang
• Printed craquelure effect echoing the surface of the original oil painting
• Hand-signed and inscribed by Andrew Graham-Dixon on the reverse backing
• Accompanied by related event material, reinforcing provenance
Unlike a signed book kept on a shelf, this work functions both as wall art and as signed cultural memorabilia, appealing across multiple collecting disciplines.
Who This Is For
• Vermeer collectors
• Dutch Golden Age art enthusiasts
• Art historians and academics
• Collectors of signed scholarly or cultural material
• Admirers of Andrew Graham-Dixon’s work
This is a crossover collectible, bridging image, interpretation, and authorship.
Condition
Very good overall condition. Frame presents attractively. Signature and inscription are clear and legible.

£975
