The Arnolfini Portrait
1434

Considered one of the leading painters of the 15th century, Jan van Eyck was and remains extremely appreciated. Personally, he's one of my favorite painters, because of, not only the amazing detail of his pieces, but the eerie, cool realism all of his characters evince.
