A portrait of a young woman in all her innocent, simple and natural beauty without artifice, both inside and out, which aims to be a personal reinterpretation of Johannes Vermeer's painting: 'The Girl with a Pearl Earring'. The blur of the leaves in the foreground that frame the face and highlight the eye, brings out the personality of a subject who, despite her shyness, reveals the simplicity and purity of her soul.
