Devout sisters in the 15th century 7 September 2014 - 22 February 2015 We take you on a spiritual journey during Van Eyck year 2014. Livina van Eyck, the daughter of Jan van Eyck, entered the St Agnes Convent beyond Maaseik’s town walls in 1449. To this end, she received a dowry from Philipp the Good. Livina was encouraged to relinquish all worldly possessions and devote herself to God. She was obliged to make a spiritual journey, which was described in the innumerable magnificent manuscripts that were copied by the sisters. We invite you to journey back in time with us. Many magnificent objects from Belgium and abroad are brought together for the first time in this exhibition. It’s a unique opportunity for Maaseik to present this precious heritage to you.
