Jan Van Eyck

Jan Van Eyck is an famous oil painter in Renaissance, and he was read in an art school when he was very little in Holland. He and his friend, Hubert, paint the oil painting together. Jan Van Eyck use the oil to draw the painting, because he discover use the oil can draw many places that use pen or other draw tools can't draw.
Painting



This painting is made in 1420, and this paintings is an oil painting. For me, this painting let me feel is very cool, because in this paintings look like there are have two words in a paintings. In fact, there only one world, but one is paradise other one is hell. I think he want to tell us, if we do the bad things we will get the god's punish. The god's place is look very peace, but in the hell that have enmity.
