''The Arnolfini Portrait'' is an oil on wood painting by Flemish painter Creator/JanVanEyck. It debuted in 1434 and now hangs in the National Gallery in London. The portrait depicts a member of the Arnolfini family (long thought to be Giovanni di Nicolao Arnolfini, but other alternatives have been suggested) holding hands with his wife in a luxurious Flemish residence.
It became famous for its lifelike subjects, usage of light, brushwork and texture. Also noted as masterful are its colors -- van Eyck painted ''alla prima'' to help the colors pop. It is also notable for being one of the first paintings to incorporate perspective, with a small mirror behind the couple reflecting them as well as another person, presumably the artist. As such, it is now considered one of the landmark works of [[UsefulNotes/TheRenaissance the early Renaissance]].
