Jan Van Eyck




I recently was in Australia and came across this masterpiece. I feel the color for the period (or any other for that matter) is remarkable and the setting to be outstanding. To think that early fifteenth century painting could be so advanced and unmatched for centuries, wow!

It has the slightly forced perspective of the day but works beautifully. I can only imagine the sensation the premier of such an advanced masterpiece must have made in the day. Still gets my heart pumping today.

It was approximately 9" x 11" and had me standing at it for quite some time. I hope you enjoy this as much I did. Send me an email and I will try to send a very large image of it.
