The Ghent Altarpiece, also known as the Adoration of the Mystic Lamb, is a complex polyptych altarpiece created by the Early Netherlandish painters Jan van Eyck and his brother Hubert van Eyck. It is considered one of the most significant and influential artworks of the Northern Renaissance. The altarpiece, completed in 1432, is housed in the Saint Bavo Cathedral in Ghent, Belgium. It is renowned for its intricate detail, use of oil painting techniques, and its large scale, measuring 11 feet 5 inches by 15 feet 1 inch when open.

Detail 6 of the Ghent Altarpiece, specifically focusing on the "Adoration of the Lamb," is one of the central panels of the lower register when the altarpiece is opened. This panel is pivotal as it depicts a scene from the Book of Revelation (Revelation 7:9), where a multitude of figures are gathered to worship the Lamb of God, symbolizing Jesus Christ. The Lamb stands on an altar, with its blood pouring into a chalice, signifying the sacrifice of Jesus for the redemption of humanity.

The panel is a masterpiece of religious symbolism and iconography, featuring a diverse assembly of saints, martyrs, prophets, and apostles, all rendered with meticulous attention to detail. The figures are arranged in groups that represent different orders of the faithful, including clerics, hermits, pilgrims, and knights, all of whom are oriented towards the Lamb in veneration.

Jan van Eyck's mastery of oil painting techniques is evident in the panel's vivid colors, realistic depiction of light, and the textural details of the natural landscape and the fabrics worn by the figures. The use of perspective and the panoramic landscape in the background also contribute to the depth and realism of the scene.

The "Adoration of the Lamb" is celebrated for its artistic innovation and its profound theological implications. It has been the subject of extensive art-historical research and conservation efforts, particularly due to its age, its complex iconography, and the fact that it has survived various historical threats, including theft and damage during periods of iconoclasm and war.

The Ghent Altarpiece as a whole, and the "Adoration of the Lamb" in particular, continue to attract scholarly attention and public interest, remaining a touchstone of European art and a testament to the Van Eyck brothers' legacy.
