- Since it first entered the National Gallery, London, in 1842, Jan van Eyck's Arnolfini Portrait (1434) has captivated viewers. Particularly entranced were the idealistic young artists of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, who were drawn to van Eyck's exquisite oil technique, luminous colour palette and above all, the mirror, which inspired new ways of representing real and illusory space. Reflections examines how this Netherlandish masterpiece inspired a generation of artists including John Everett Millais, William Holman Hunt, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Fort Madox Brown and Edward Burne-Jones to create striking new paintings that were both beautiful and mysterious.--Back cover
