Jules Cashford brings her unique scholarship and perspective to the world of Early Netherlandish painting to stunning result, decoding for us with fresh new insight a pictorial symbolism - foreign to modern sensibilities - embedded in the art of the great master of 15th century oil painting, Jan van Eyck. Detail by brilliant detail, she guides us through the paintings into the very heart, soul and intellect of this extraordinary artist whose message continues to have surprising resonance, even for our modern world.
