Ghent Altarpiece Ghent Altarpiece The Ghent Altarpiece (or the Adoration of the Mystic Lamb, ) is a very large and complex 15th-century polyptych altarpiece in St Bavo's Cathedral, Ghent, Belgium. It is attributed to the brothers Hubert and Jan van Eyck, who were Early Flemish painters. It is considered a masterpiece of European art and one of the world's treasures.

The upper register of the inner panels form the central Deësis of Christ the King, Virgin Mary and John the Baptist.
