Description

Transcription of Inscription [Lampsonius]:

HUBERTO AB EYCK, IOANNIS FRATRI, PICTORI. Quas modo communes cum fratre, Huberte, merenti Attribuit laudes nostra Thalia tibi, Si non sufficient : addatur et illa tua quod Discipulus frater te superavit ope. Hoc vestrum docet illud opus Gandense Philippum Quod Regem tanto cepit amore sui : Eius ut ad patrios mittendum exemplar Iberos +Coxennii fieri iusserit ille manu.

+Michael Coxennius Mechlin: in insignis hac aetate pictor

Translation of Inscription [Lampsonius]:

To Hubert van Eyck, brother of Jan, painter.

Hubert, if the praises which our Thalia1 recently attributed to you along with your deserving brother are not enough, let this [praise] of yours be added, that your brother, as your student, outdid you in ability2 That work of yours in Ghent3 teaches this, which filled Philip with such love of it,4 that he ordered a copy of it to be made by the hand of Coxennius, to be sent to his native Spaniards.

Note (referring to Coxennius) – Michael Coxennius of Mechelen, a famous painter of that age.
