La ragazza con l'orecchino di perla

This item is a paperback book, 'La ragazza con l'orecchino di perla' (Girl with a Pearl Earring) by Tracy Chevalier, an Italian translation of the original English novel. The book features a softcover binding with an image of Johannes Vermeer's famous painting, 'Girl with a Pearl Earring,' prominently displayed on the front cover against a dark background, making the subject's face and pearl earring centrally visible. The author's name, 'TRACY CHEVALIER,' is printed in white capital letters at the top, followed by the title in a larger, elegant serif font. Below the title, there is a descriptive blurb in Italian, including a quote from 'The New York Times,' which reads: 'L'innocenza di una serva, le ossessioni di un artista... Un avvincente romano sulla natura dell'amore e dell'arte che evoca meravigliosamente la vita del XVII secolo.' A small red rectangle with 'NARRATIVA' and 'ROMANZI' in white text is visible on the lower left side, likely indicating the genre or publisher imprint. The physical condition appears good with minimal visible wear, although there's a slight scuff or reflection near the bottom right edge. The book likely dates from the late 20th or early 21st century, given the publication date of the original work (1999) and its continued popularity. The craftsmanship is typical of mass-market paperback publishing, focusing on readability and accessibility rather than luxury materials.
