Simone Martini, Annunciation, 1333

There are some who make excessive use of gold, because they think it lends a certain majesty to painting. I would not praise them at all. Even if I wanted to paint Virgil’s Dido with her quiver of gold, her hair tied up in gold, her gown fastened with golden clasp, driving her chariot with golden reins, and everything else resplendent with gold I would try to represent with colors rather than with gold this wealth of rays of gold that almost blinds the eyes of the spectator from all angles. Besides the fact that there is greater admiration and praise for the artist in the use of colors, it is also true that, when done in gold on a flat panel, many surfaces that should have been presented as light and gleaming, appear dark to the viewer, while others that should be darker, probably look brighter.

Ghent Altarpiece (details)

Egg tempera dries quickly does not lend itself to broad application applied thinly and evenly in tightly placed, regular, parallel strokes opaque: colors applied next to, rather than on top of one another colors remain true to the mineral pigments Oil paint takes hours, even days to dry allows for blending of colors and the creation of new tones allows for gradual transitions translucence: what is beneath shows through consistency of the medium is adjustable greater variety in the size of brushes and the ways in which colors is applied unlike tempera’s smooth appearance, oil can give texture
