Flemish painter Jan Van Eyck is one of Belgium's most significant
artists, famous for his early contributions to the Northern
Renaissance movement of the 15th century. His polyptych classic,
the Ghent Altarpiece (or The Adoration of the Mystic Lamb), is
considered a masterpiece of European art and one of the most
influential paintings ever made. In The Mystic Lamb, the famous
Flemish illustrator Jan Van der Veken and history professor Harry
De Paepe, produce a series of works in honour of Van Eyck's coveted
treasure. The book discusses Jan Van Eyck and explores why his
paintings were so exceptional, as well as the robbery of two parts
of the work in 1934, which was never resolved. This is an
easy-to-read collection of interesting anecdotes alongside
illustrations telling you everything you ever wanted to know about
Jan Van Eyck and The Adoration of the Mystic Lamb.
