PREFACE
Tue title of the present publication is, like most titles, inaccurate. I have not attempted a presentation of Early Netherlandish Painting in its entirety —a task which will have to wait, I believe, for another Max J. Friedlander or Hulin de Loo — but concentrated my efforts on Hubert and Jan van Eyck, the Master of Flémalle and Roger van der Weyden. I have tried to clarify, as far as possible, the historical premises of their achievement; to assess what we know, or think we know, about their style; and to chart, however roughly, the course of those ensuing
developments which may be said to constitute the main stream of the Early Netherlandish tradition. Thus limited, the discussion must dwell at some length on the antecedents of the subject and, on the other hand, omit important aspects of the subject itself. Like my previous book on Albrecht Diirer, this study has grown out of a series of public , lectures — in this case, the Charles Eliot Norton Lectures delivered at Harvard University in 1947-1948. It steers, therefore, a similarly precarious course between the requirements of the “general reader” and those of the special student (who may derive some benefit from the notes and bibliography), and this under much less favorable conditions. He who speaks of the life and works of an individual artist places his listeners in armchairs, so to speak, and invites them to admire the varying aspects of a sculptured figure displayed before them on a revolving base. He who attempts to describe a phenomenon as vast and intricate as Early Netherlandish
Painting routs them out of their houses and asks them to accompany him on a strenuous tour through the remains of an ancient city partly preserved, partly in ruins, and partly buried in the ground. Faced with this task, I could not proceed like an archeologist who leads a group of colleagues straight to the most recent excavations. Rather I have contented myself with the role of a cicerone who, while not entirely avoiding excavations and occasionally venturing into tangly thickets where the digging has barely started,* must try to give a general idea of the old city’s location and topography and concentrate upon the major sights, familiar though they may be to many members of his party; who often reverts to the same spots to reconsider them in the light of intervening impressions; and now and then points out an unexpected vista that opens up between two walls. I am very much indebted to the Bollingen Foundation for a most generous grant in aid of the publication of this book, and to the Institute for Advanced Study for a special appropriation which made it possible to print the notes in what I hope will prove to be a fairly convenient * This applies especially to Chapter IV.

EARLY NETHERLANDISH PAINTING

INTRODUCTION
THE POLARIZATION OF EUROPEAN
FIFTEENTH-CENTURY PAINTING IN ITALY AND THE LOWLANDS Wen two men of the sixteenth century as widely disparate as Luther and Michelangelo turned their conversation to painting, they thought only two schools worth mentioning, the Italian and the Flemish. Luther approved of the Flemings, while Michelangelo did not; but neither considered what was produced outside these two great centers.’ Giorgio Vasari, the sixteenth-century historiographer of art, quite correctly refers to Durer as a German when deploring his influence upon a great Florentine; * but as soon as the discussion takes a more general turn, the same Vasari automatically classifies not only Diirer but also
Diirer’s forerunner, Martin Schongauer, as “Flemings” operating in Antwerp.° , One-sided though it is, such a reduction of the whole diversity of European painting to one antithesis is not without justification when considered in the light of the preceding developments. From about 1430 down to the end of the fifteenth century, Italy and Flanders (or, to be more precise, the Netherlands) had indeed enjoyed a position of undisputed predominance, with all the other schools, their individual differences and merits notwithstanding,
depending either on Italy and Flanders in conjunction or on Flanders alone. In England, Germany and Austria, the direct or indirect influence of the “great Netherlandish artists,” as Direr calls them, ruled supreme for two or three successive generations; in France, in the Iberian peninsula, and in such borderline districts as the southern Tyrol, this influence was rivaled but never eclipsed by that of the Italian Quattrocento; and the Italian Quattrocento itself was deeply impressed with the distinctive qualities of Early Flemish painting. Italian princes, merchants and cardinals commissioned and collected Flemish pictures, invited Flemish painters to Italy, and occasionally sent their Italian protégés to the Netherlands for instruction. Italian writers lavished praise upon the Flemings and some Italian painters were eager to fuse their buona maniera antica with what was most admired in the maniera Fiamminga. In Colantonio of Naples and Antonello da Messina the Flemish influence is so strong that the latter was long believed to have been a personal pupil of Jan van Eyck. That Ghirlandaio’s “St. Jerome” and Botticelli’s “St. Augustine,” both in the Church of
I
EARLY NETHERLANDISH PAINTING Ognissanti, are patterned after an Eyckian “St. Jerome” then owned by the Medici * is common knowledge; and so is the fact that the adoring shepherds in Ghirlandaio’s “Nativity” of 1485 were inspired by Hugo van der Goes’ Portinari altarpiece, which had reached Florence just three or four years before.? When we take into account, in addition to such direct “borrowings,” the less palpable but even more important diffusion of a Flemish spirit in psychological approach and pictorial treatment (Piero di Cosimo’s landscapes, for example, would be in-
explicable without the wings of the Portinari altarpiece just mentioned), the influence of Flanders upon the Italian Quattrocento becomes almost incalculable. What the Italians of the Renaissance — enthusiasts and skeptics alike — considered as characteristic of this Flemish spirit can be inferred from their own words. First, there was the splendor of a new technique, the invention of which was ascribed, first by implication and later expressly, to Jan van Eyck himself.’ Second, and in a measure predicated upon this new technique, there was that adventurous and all-embracing, yet selective, “naturalism” which distilled for the beholder an untold wealth of visual enchantment from everything created by God or contrived by man. “Multicolored soldier’s cloaks,” writes Cyriacus of Ancona, the greatest antiquarian of his time, in 1449, “garments prodigiously
enhanced by purple and gold, blooming meadows, flowers, trees, leafy and shady hills, ornate halls and porticoes, gold really resembling gold, pearls, precious stones, and everything
else you would think to have been produced, not by the artifice of human hands but by all-bearing nature herself.” * Third, there was a peculiar piety which seemed to distinguish the intent of Flemish painting from the more humanistic — and, in a sense, more formalistic — spirit of Italian art. A great lady of fifteenth-century Florence wrote to her son that, whichever picture she might be forced to dispose of, she would not part with a Flemish “Holy Face” because it was “una divota figura e bella”; ° and Michelangelo is said to have remarked, to the dismay of the saintly Vittoria Colonna, that Flemish paintings would bring tears to the eyes of the devout, though these were mostly “women, young girls, clerics, nuns and gentlefolk without much understanding for the true harmony of art.” ° The most circumstantial and outstanding tribute is paid to Flemish painting in a collection of biographies, composed in 1455 or 1456 by Bartolommeo Fazio, a humanist from Genoa who lived at the court of Alphonso of Aragon at Naples. Of the four painters included in this
Book of Famous Men no less than two are Flemings: Jan van Eyck and Roger van der Weyden, the latter still alive at the time of Fazio’s writing." Jan van Eyck is referred to as “the foremost painter of our age” (nostri saeculi pictorum princeps). He is praised for his scholarly and scientific accomplishments and credited with the rediscovery of what Pliny and other classics had known about “the property of pigments” —an obvious allusion to those technical innovations which a good humanist felt bound to derive, by hook or by crook,
from classical antiquity. In his descriptions of such individual works as he had seen — unfortunately all of them lost — Fazio, too, untiringly stresses pious sentiment on the one hand, and verisimilitude on the other. He is moved by the grief of Roger van der Weyden’s Josephs of Arimathea and Marys, witnessing the Descent from the Cross, and by the Virgin’s 2
INTRODUCTION “dismay, with dignity preserved amidst a flow of tears” when she received the news of Christ’s arrest. But no less keen is his enthusiasm for Jan van Eyck’s “Map of the World” in which all the places and regions of the earth were represented in recognizable form and at measurable distances; his delight in Jan’s “St. Jerome in His Study,” where a bookcase, “if you step back a little, seems to recede in space and to display the books in their entirety while he who comes near sees only their upper edges”; and his admiration for a donor’s portrait with “a sunbeam stealing through a chink in the wall so that you would think it , was the real sun.” And Fazio’s highest praise is reserved for Jan’s picture of a Women’s Bath — perhaps a rendering of magic practices— which must have been a summa of optical refinements.” It included a mirror showing, in addition to the back of a bather represented in front view, whatever else was in the room; an aged woman attendant who “seemed to perspire”; a little dog that lapped up the spilled water; a lamp “looking like one that really burns”; and, furthermore, a landscape — apparently seen through a window — where “horses, people of diminutive size, mountains, woods and castles were elaborated with such artistry that one thing seemed to be separated from the other by fifty miles.” In thus describing the direct juxtaposition of the minutiae of an interior with a vast, almost cosmic panorama, of the microscopic with the telescopic, so to speak, Fazio comes very close to the great secret of Eyckian painting: the simultaneous realization, and, in a sense, reconciliation, of the “two infinites,” the infinitesimally small and the infinitely large.
: It is this secret that intrigued the Italians, and that always eluded them.
I When we confront Jan van Eyck’s famous double portrait of Giovanni Arnolfini and His Wife of 1434 (fig. 247) with a nearly contemporary and relatively comparable Italian
work, such as the “Death of St. Ambrose” in San Clemente at Rome executed about 1430 by Masolino da Panicale (text ill. 1) we observe basic similarities as well as basic differences. In both cases the scene is laid in an interior drawn to scale with the figures and furnished according to upper class standards in fafteenth-century Flanders and Italy, respectively; and in both cases advantage has been taken of that representational method which more than any other single factor distinguishes a “modern” from a medieval work of art (and without which the rendering of such interiors would not have been possible), namely, perspective.? The purposes, however, to which this method has been turned are altogether different. “Perspectiva,’ says Diirer, “is a Latin word and means a ‘Durchsehung’” (a view through something). As coined by Boethius and used by all writers prior to the fifteenth century, the word perspectiva refers to perspicere in the sense of “seeing clearly,” and not in the sense of
“seeing through”; a direct translation of the Greek dari, it designates a mathematical theory of vision and not a mathematical method of graphic representation. Durer’s definition, on the other hand, gives an excellent and brief description of “perspective” as understood in postmedieval usage, including our own. By a “perspective” picture we mean indeed a picture 3
EARLY NETHERLANDISH PAINTING wherein the wall, panel or canvas ceases to be a solid working surface on which images are drawn and painted, and is interpreted — to quote another theorist of the Renaissance, Leone Battista Alberti — as a “kind of window” through which we look out into a section of space. Exact mathematical perspective as developed in the fifteenth century is nothing but a method of making this “view through a window” constructible, and it is well known that the Italians, significantly under the guidance of an architect, Filippo Brunelleschi, had achieved this end about 1420 by drawing the mathematical consequences from the window simile. They con-
