Description
Van Eyck: The king of painters. The new volume of the series "Masterwerke in Detail" focuses on Jan van Eyck, the great old Dutch master, who was in the first half of the 15th century revolutionised the laws of painting. Thanks to its innovative use of oil technology, its reinvention of the picture space and a true naturalistic and reaching to the smallest, he founded a new era of painting. In excellent illustrations, the volume Van Eyck - Masterpieces in detail illustrates the artist's extraordinary finesse in the representation of faces and fabrics, glass and mirrors, architecture and jewellery. Van Eyck's fine detail is shown in the famous painting of the Arnolfini wedding, in the numerous portraits and, last but not least, in the great Genter Altar. Elaborate restoration work brought the painted original layer to light, which was hidden for centuries. Using current images, the band first shows these sensational discoveries and reveals the original appearance of this outstanding and mysterious art treasure. "Van Eyck - Masterpieces in detail" appears in time to become the most comprehensive Van Eyck exhibition yet, which will spectacularly ring the art year 2020. "His joy in detail is overwhelming as the numerous illustrations shown in this book. Every single picture section is simply perfect, whether it's a roof projection, a stubble beard or a bead... After all, we are talking about the best painter ever exist." (Luc Tuymans, from the Foreword)
