You definitely need color logic, and you need to use a bit of edge logic with the 7 on the far left. Other than that, the helper solved it pretty easily. Enjoy!#2: katherine (katherineb) on Dec 23, 2007

...actually, I was almost finished when one of the twins walked in and exclaimed, "Oh, it's the girl with the pearl earring!" Lol...up to then I was thinking it was a Spanish lady, but as soon as she said that it was so obvious I felt silly I hadn't figured it out for myself. Kids!#5: Nancy Snyder (naneki) on Dec 23, 2007

sorry brain dead today can't think of anything witty to say :)
I recognized what it was about half way through solving. Very nice!#7: Beth (Shasta) on Dec 28, 2007

Very cool, and fun to solve.#9: Adam Nielson (monkey) on Jul 23, 2008 [SPOILER]
Yes, I can make out he earring. I know where it should be, and I can see the bright part in front, with the back part in shadow. Nicely done.#10: GabrielMyCat (gabrielmycat) on Apr 6, 2012
very nice!#11: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Aug 3, 2014
Very interesting and fun! Wish the server was saving so I could come back to this one. 2017 - I did come back and did it again from scratch. Still a nice solve.#12: Tonia Bergh (tonia) on Aug 3, 2014 [SPOILER]
One of my favorite paintings...amazing rendition, Arduinna!
