. 1470 / 1475. Creator: Giovanni Bellini) (The Annunciation, c. 1489 / 1490. Creator: Leonardo da Vinci) "Tempera on poplar panel" refers to a technique used in the creation of various artworks throughout history. This method involves using pigments mixed with egg yolk or other binders and applying them onto a wooden surface made from poplar panels. One notable example is the "Enthroned Madonna and Child, " created between 1250 and 1275 by an unknown artist. This piece showcases the use to depict the divine bond between Mary and Jesus. Another masterpiece that utilizes this technique is "The Angel of the Annunciation, " painted around 1330 by Simone Martini. The delicate brushwork and vibrant colors achieved through tempera on poplar panel bring life to this angelic figure. In Sassetta's works like "Saint Apollonia" and "Saint Margaret, " both created around 1435, we witness how tempera on poplar panel captures intricate details, such as facial expressions and textures, enhancing these religious icons' spiritual presence. "The Meeting of Saint Anthony and Saint Paul, " along with its companion piece "The Death of Saint Anthony, " crafted between 1430-1435 by Sano di Pietro, exemplifies how they are convey dramatic scenes with depth and emotion. Similarly, in "Saint Anthony Distributing His Wealth to the Poor" and "Saint Anthony Leaving His Monastery, " also attributed to Sano di Pietro during the same period, this technique allows for nuanced storytelling through precise brushstrokes. Piero della Francesca's rendition of "Saint Apollonia" from around 1455-1460 demonstrates how tempera on poplar panel creates a luminous effect that enhances her saintly aura.
