#HubertVanEyck died #OnThisDay in 1426; he worked with his brother #JanVanEyck on "L'Agneau Mystique," though it's not quite clear how much is Hubert & how much Jan; in any case, the #GhentAltarpiece is one of the supreme masterpieces of European #art...

Jan van Eyck #janvaneyck
To gild refined gold, to paint the lily,
To throw a perfume on the violet,
To smooth the ice, or add another hue
Unto the rainbow, or with taper-light
To seek the beauteous eye of heaven to garnish,
Is wasteful and ridiculous excess.

A full-length 15th-century oil painting by Jan van Eyck depicting a wealthy merchant, Giovanni di Nicolao Arnolfini, and his pregnant wife, Giovanna Cenami, standing in a richly decorated domestic interior. The man is on the left, facing right, with his right hand raised and his left hand holding his wife's hand. He wears a dark, fur-lined coat and a large dark hat. The woman is on the right, in a voluminous green gown, looking slightly towards the viewer, with her left hand resting on her draped belly and her right hand in her husband's. A small dog stands at their feet. In the background, a convex mirror reflects the couple and two other figures, while a large chandelier hangs above them and a window is visible on the left.
The Arnolfini Portrait stands as a testament to Van Eyck's extraordinary skill in capturing texture and light. Every element, from the dog's fur to the reflection in the mirror, showcases remarkable realism. 🎨🖼️🌟🤩🖌️ #ArnolfiniPortrait #JanVanEyck #ArtHistory #Art
