VAN EYCK AND THE ADORATION OF THE MYSTIC LAMB: MY TRIP TO FLANDERS TO DISCOVER A MASTERPIECE

The Adoration of the Mystic Lamb is the largest masterpiece by van Eyck but is also the most precious and delicate.
The painting is located in Belgium, more precisely in Flanders, a territory which is a treasure trove of treasures and masterpieces, about an hour by train from Brussel. That Flanders was a place full of art I’ve already understood last year, when I visit it for a tour to discover the Flemish painting, as I told you in the post Flemish painting: a tour among the masterpieces of Flanders. So, when I was invited to come back to Belgium for a trip following in the footsteps of van Eyck and his most important masterpiece I immediately accepted.
