| Description |
Deutsch: Die Erythräische Sybille ist in ein orientalisch wirkendes Kostüm gekleidet. Ihre turbanartige Haube gleicht den Hauben der Hebammen auf Robert Campins Geburt Jesu und rückt diese Sibylle in die Nähe der bis ins Spätmittelalter verehrten weisen Frauen. English: In October 1428 Jan did accompany a Burgundian embassy, this time for the hand of Isabella, eldest daughter of John I of Portugal (reg 1385–1433). After a storm forced them to spend four weeks in England, the Burgundians arrived in Lisbon in December. In January they met the King in the castle of Aviz, and van Eyck painted the Infanta's portrait, probably in two versions to accompany the two separate groups who left by sea and by land on 12 February to report the terms to the Duke. The portraits are untraced, but one is preserved in a drawing (Germany, prig. col., see Sterling, fig.), which reveals that Jan used the princess's Portuguese dress for the Erythrean sibyl on the Ghent Altarpiece.
Nil mortale sona(n)s ♦ afflata es numine celso ♦ Deutsch: Übersetzung: Nichts Sterbliches besingend, bist du von göttlichem Willen erfüllt (nach Vergil, Aeneis VI, 50). |
