#7 It is the depiction of their wedding, wich happend to be in Brügge. A medieval onlooker would see a lot of information in the details:
- The dog stands for loyalty
- The glass windows and the peaches on the windowsill stand for wealth
- the weird wood shoes are called Trippe and saveguard its wearer before the feces on the streets.
- Its a marriage to the 'Left Hand' (her left in his right), means she is from lower social origin
- He raises his right hand for the marriage oath
- The weird Mirror is called 'Hexe' (witch) and if you look closely you will find two persons entring the room. One of them is the painter himself.
- The writing above says 'Jannis van Eyck fuit hic', means Jan van Eyck was here.
Conclusion: The Painting is merely a document of a marriage.

Lady With An Ermine, Leonardo Da Vinci (1489)

For decades, there was much debate about whether the Lady with an Ermine painting was a Leonardo da Vinci piece or not. This was mostly because the painting was found to have layers of overpaint, and Leonardo’s signature appeared to have been added to it way after its creation. But when the painting underwent extensive analysis from 2012 to 2014, the stylistic and material consistency of the original work confirmed, without a doubt, that it was a Leonardo da Vinci masterpiece.
