The document discusses The Ghent Altarpiece, painted between 1432 by Hubert and Jan van Eyck. It contains high quality images and details of various panels from the altarpiece including Adam and Eve, angels, prophets, and the adoration of the lamb. The altarpiece was commissioned for Saint Bavo's Cathedral in Ghent, Belgium where it is still housed today.
- Painting during this period featured solemn facial expressions and distorted space/perspectives to fit domestic interiors. Artists closely observed and perfectly rendered nature, fabrics, and other materials.
- Jan van Eyck helped perfect oil painting techniques like atmospheric perspective and fine realistic details. His works include the Ghent Altarpiece and The Arnolfini Portrait.
- Albrecht Dürer was a leading German Renaissance artist influenced by Italian styles but with his own ideas. He created remarkable self-portraits and woodcut prints that helped disseminate Renaissance ideas.

The Koninklijk Museum voor Schone Kunsten has its origins in the Antwerp Guild of St. Luke from the 14th century and contains over 7,200 works of art. The Mayer van den Bergh Museum houses the private collection of Fritz Mayer van den Bergh and his mother from the late 19th/early 20th century.

The Ghent Altarpiece
The most famous work of Jan van Eyck is a huge Ghent Altarpiece with many scenes in the city of Ghent. It is said to
have been begun by Jan's elder brother Hubert, of whom little is known, and was completed by Jan in 1432. On the
frame a quatrain is inscribed which states that the polyptych was begun by Pictor Hubertus Eyck, and finished by his
brother Jan, at the request of Jodocus Vijd, deputy burgomaster of Ghent, warden of the church of St John, and of his
wife, Elisabeth Borluut, who commissioned it. The verse was placed there when the altarpiece was installed on 6 May
1432.
The stylistic analysis reveals that in the painting the work of two different hands can be clearly discerned. The overall
conception of the altarpiece is the work of Hubert, along with the execution of certain parts, such as the panels in the
lower tier. Here, the manner is archaic, and reflects the continuing dominance of the international style that was
practised by Broederlam. The composition is typically unoriginal: the landscape is still conceived as a distant
background, with which the figures at the front have no organic relation, an effect that is reinforced by the bird's eye
point of view.
