He chooses the second as it was “grassy and wanted wear” but then goes on to say they were “really about the same”.

Arnolfini and his Wife‚” the 1434 oil painting by northern European artist Jan van Eyck. The identity of the couple and the subject matter of the portrait is still shrouded in mystery. The assumption that I made after reading chapter 19 was that Jan van Eyck might have dedicated the portrait to the couple as a testimony or commemoration of their engagement.
