3 works across 1 institution
London's National Gallery holds 3 works by Jan van Eyck (1390–1441) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.
Van Eyck perfected oil painting and the technical revolution he achieved is visible in every original: surfaces of jewel-like depth and luminosity, details of extraordinary precision, light that seems to come from within the canvas. No reproduction conveys the physical presence of a van Eyck panel.

Planning your visit to London
Most major national museums in London are free to enter permanently — the National Gallery, Tate Modern, Tate Britain, and National Portrait Gallery all charge nothing for the permanent collection. The Courtauld Gallery at Somerset House and the Wallace Collection are also free. Pre-booking is rarely needed for permanent collections but recommended for major temporary exhibitions.
