The Arnolfini Portrait
Van Eyck's double portrait is a masterpiece of Northern Renaissance realism. Every detail—from the chandelier to the convex mirror—carries symbolic meaning about marriage, wealth, and spirituality. The mirror reflection shows two witnesses and the artist himself. The work explores identity, witness, representation, and the boundaries between reality and artistic illusion. The meticulous realism creates almost photographic presence.
