History on the artist:
Jan van Eyck (before 1395 – before 1441), a Flemish painter, is generally considered one of the most significant Northern European painters of the 15th century. Very little is known of his early life, but his use of Hebrew and Greek in many of the inscriptions in his works indicate that he had been schooled in the classics. It is believed he was of the gentry class and he worked in the courts of several prominent nobles. He had two brothers who were also artists, and some of his work was done in concert with them. He was involved in decorating the Binnenhof Palace in The Hague, and after he moved to Bruges he served as both court artist and diplomat and became a senior member of the painters’ guild. Van Eyck’s works are of an exceptionally innovative and technical quality, especially in the handling and manipulating of oil paint.
