I am a World History and World Geography teacher in Morgan City, Louisiana. In our world history book there is a small section on Flemish painters when we are discussing the Northern Renaissance. They talk about Jan and Hubert van Eyck, Peter Bruegel, Peter Paul Rubens. Each had a paragraph talking about the way the paintings were done. I do talk about them in my lecture.

World Geography book does not mention anything.
