Stone's JSA 2013-14 Blog of Awesomeness: What do the pearl earring symbolize?: We've been discussing symbols, and symbols of power throughout the school year. Without giving too much away, I would love to hear your ...
In reply to this, I would like to say that I have a few ideas as to what the pearl earring represents in the story. First off I think that in a way it is a symbol of wealth, even though griet is not wealthy.. she still is intelligent and could easily be a wealthy woman. This might also show feminism, because she has all her hair covered up and a very neutral tone to her face, and the earring let the viewers of the painting know that she is a woman, a beautiful and wealthy woman. That is how I believe the pearl earring is symbolized.
