Tempera, also known as egg tempera, is a permanent, fast-drying painting medium consisting of colored pigments mixed with a water-soluble binder, usually glutinous material such as egg yolk. Tempera paints have been used for centuries, predating oil paints.
Composition: Tempera is traditionally made by combining pigment with a binding agent, most commonly egg yolk. Other binders include whole egg, egg white, gums, glues, and casein. The binder emulsifies the pigment, allowing it to be applied smoothly.

Historical Significance: Tempera was a dominant painting medium in Europe from the 12th to the 15th centuries, used for panel paintings, illuminated manuscripts, and frescoes. Famous artists like Sandro Botticelli and Duccio di Buoninsegna used tempera extensively.
Modern Use: While largely replaced by oil and acrylic paints, tempera is still used by some artists today, especially those interested in traditional techniques. It is also commonly used in schools because it is non-toxic and easy to clean up. Acrylic tempera is a common type that is used in schools. This is a modern paint that uses acrylic polymer as a binder instead of egg.
