Jan van Eyck (c. 1390–1441), one of the realistic masters of the Renaissance, left an unparalleled legacy in painting. His innovations in using oil paint with depth and rich colours brought everyday life and religious scenes together with extraordinary naturalism. With masterpieces such as The Arnolfini Portrait and the Ghent Altarpiece, van Eyck shaped art history and is regarded as one of the most admired painters not only of his era but of the entire art world. This comprehensive volume examines the artist’s production from altar panels to portraits with detailed images and close‑up analysis that reveal his brushwork mastery. It also provides a chronological view of the output from van Eyck’s workshop.
