# List of works by Jan van Eyck

This is a list of works by the Early Netherlandish artist Jan van Eyck. He was not a prolific artist; only twenty paintings are attributed to him, although a great many others are believed to be destroyed or lost.
Van Eyck was the first major European artist to utilize oil painting. Though the use of oil paint preceded Van Eyck by many centuries, his virtuosic handling and manipulation of oil paint, use of multiple half-transparent layers of paint, glazes, wet-on-wet and other techniques was such that Giorgio Vasari started the myth that Van Eyck had invented oil painting
About twenty surviving paintings are confidently attributed to him, as well as the Ghent Altarpiece (co-attributed to his brother Hubert) and some of the illuminated miniatures of the Turin-Milan Hours. All panels are dated between 1432 and 1439. Ten works are dated and signed with a variation of his motto ALS ICH KAN ("As I can").
