- Abstract
The article focuses on the Tallinn (Reval) altarpiece of St. Mary's altar of the Brotherhood of the Blackheads, attributed to the Bruges Master of the Legend of St. Lucy, which arrived in the late medieval city in 1493. The altarpiece is noteworthy for its very dense network of luxurious details like silk, velvet and gold cloth from Italy, ceramics from Spain, tapestries from Netherlands and an oriental carpet from Anatolia. Early Netherlandish painting is notable for the very detailed, texture and light-sensitive rendering of everyday and luxury objects, from which the works of Jan van Eyck are the best examples.
