Van Eyck is a Flemish primitive, a pioneer of the Northern Renaissance and the father of oil painting. He is one of the greatest painters of the West, and it was only natural that the Museum of Fine Arts Ghent wanted to pay tribute to him with its Van Eyck exhibition. An optical revolution. About twenty of the artist's works are on display, which are now to be found all over Europe. Treasures that take place next to works of his contemporaries. The event explores the myths surrounding the artist, as well as his technique, his influence and how he amazes all those who discover his work for the first time.
