About Hubert and Jan van Eyck and The Ghent Altarpiece (Closed) (1432)

Hubert van Eyck (died 1426) and Jan van Eyck (c. 1390–1441) created this altarpiece. Its wings were usually kept closed and opened only on feast days to reveal the colourful scenes inside. This image shows the outer side after recent restoration. The Ghent Altarpiece, also known as the Adoration of the Mystic Lamb, was completed in 1432 for the chapel of Joos Vijd and Elisabeth Borluut in the church now known as St Bavo's Cathedral in Ghent. An inscription on its frame says it was begun by Hubert van Eyck and finished by his brother Jan. Painted in oil with astonishing precision, its twelve panels are among the founding masterpieces of European art. The altarpiece is still in St Bavo's Cathedral in Ghent, where a major restoration begun in 2012 has removed centuries of overpaint.
