The Dior couture collection he showed offered a dazzling case in point.
Galliano worked from an apparently limitless budget for a lineup rooted in New Look extravagance yet inspired by the Dutch Masters, from whom he pilfered a rich Vermeer palette (set against plenty of white), a stately "sittings posture" and gracefully flamboyant (豔麗的) portrait chapeaux(帽子).
Vermeer - refer to Johannes Vermeer (1632-1675)
Johannes Vermee was a Dutch Baroque painter who specialized in exquisite, domestic interior scenes of ordinary life, protraits.
Work: Only about 35 paintings are known.
Colors used:
Vermeer worked slowly and with great care, using bright colours, sometimes expensive pigments, with a preference for cornflower blue and yellow. He is particularly renowned for his masterly treatment and use of light in his work. What strikes in most of his paintings is a certain love, which easily could be called a love sickness, for the people and the objects in his paintings. He created a world more perfect than any he had witnessed.
The Girl with a Wine Glass, 1660
A comparable but even more remarkable, yet effectual, use of natural ultramarine is in The Girl with a Wineglass (Braunschweig). The shadows of the red satin dress are underpainted in natural ultramarine(群青色的), and due to this underlying blue paint layer, the red lake and vermilion(硃砂,Red) mixture applied over it acquires a slightly purple, cool and crisp appearance that is most powerful.
