This focused exhibition explores tempera’s fascinating history through a number of key objects from The Huntington art collections, as well as two important loans from the Resnick collection. A pair of portraits by 15th-century master Domenico Ghirlandaio serves as a springboard to explore the fascination with tempera that manifested in Britain and America centuries later in the work of artists such as Joseph Southall (1861-1944), Mark Gertler (1891-1939), and George Tooker (1920-2011)
