Drawn from the definitive Masterpiece, this book explores four of the great Flemish artist's most famous paintings: the Ghent Altarpiece, the Virgin and Child with Chancellor Nicolas Rolin, the Virgin and Child with Canon Joris van der Paele and St Barbara. Superbly illustrated with full-page images and stunning details, and with a separate chapter on the restoration of the Ghent Altarpiece, these outstanding works are examined and explained by Till-Holger Borchert, director of Musea Brugge and specialist in the art of the Low Countries (14th-16th century).
