Abstract
Jan Ykens has been identified as the author of Alexander and Hephaestion Consoling the Family of Darius. About this unknown Flemish painter, there are only a few works of art signed and located in several churches in Belgium. No much more is known about him because of the Family painters that he belongs to. His production is mixed with others from his family. Nevertheless, in this case, the style of this new painting fits well with that works signed by Jan Ykens in Belgium.
