Man In a Red Turban (homage to Jan Van Eyck) Print

Rejuvenation to the famous artist Jan van Eyck and his work Portrait of a Man in a Red Turban! The portrait was created using mixed media with a very rich collage image. Collage fragments created from fragments of philatelic stamps give a special subtlety here. Artist Jan van Eyck was a Flemish painter active in Bruges. He is one of the early innovators of what became known as Early Netherlandish painting, and one of the most significant representatives of Early Northern Renaissance art. Portrait of a Man in a Red Turban is an oil painting by the Early Netherlandish painter Jan van Eyck, from 1433. The inscription at the top of the panel, Als Ich Can (intended as "as I/Eyck can") was a common autograph for van Eyck, but here is unusually large and prominent. This fact, along with the man's unusually direct and confrontational gaze, have been taken as an indication that the work is a self-portrait. The painting also stands out for its rich subtle collage technique. Extravaganza of abstracts and psychedelia!
