Jan van Eyck (Holland) - (1390 - 1441)
Jan van Eyck is considered to be a founder of the Early Renaissance style in the Northern Renaissance.
It was believed, that Jan van Eyck invented painting with oils, maybe it is not true, but his technique in painting with oils is exceptional.
His paint is so transparent that his works have a unique, almost luminous sheen.
Van Eyck revealed himself as a master in representation of space. Van Eyck was one of the first great masters of portrait painting in Europe.
Above is my digital painting of a Christian religious scene, original by Jan van Eyck - The Last Judgement.
Original Painting: 1425-1430. Oil on canvas transferred from wood. Now presently kept in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
My digital painting is color enhanced and represents the medium 'oil on canvas'.
