#22 – The Goldfinch by Carel Fabritius – Painted in 1654
In 1654 Fabritius painted one of his most extraordinary pictures, The Goldfinch. It is a lifelike portrait of a little bird pictured against a white wall. That same year, at the age of 32, Fabritius was killed when a gunpowder warehouse exploded in Delft.
The Painting was made famous by Donna Tartt’s novel, but the truth about its artist, Carel Fabritius, is stranger than fiction. Read the story of the Goldfinch and Carel Fabritius here.
Davis quotes an art dealer speculating that the painting may be worth $300 million: “When considered by the square inch, ‘The Goldfinch’ might be one of the most valuable paintings in the world.”
