A favorite of artists such as Michelangelo, Botticelli, Raphael, and Andrew Wyeth for its rich beauty, Tempera was the primary method of painting until after 1500. The medium allowed for great experimentation, binders such as glue, honey, even milk were included. As the medium evolved artists used wax and oils based paints.

Join Saks Galleries as we present a very special exhibition of five of the most respected Contemporary Tempera painters in the country. A salon will follow on the History and Technique of Tempera painting April 2 at Saks Galleries.
