Madonna and Child by Duccio, tempera and gold on wood, 1284, Siena

Tempera, also known as egg tempera, is a permanent fast-drying painting medium consisting of colored pigment mixed with a water-soluble binder medium (usually a glutinous material such as egg yolk or some other size). Tempera also refers to the paintings done in this medium. Tempera paintings are very long lasting, and examples from the 1st centuries AD still exist. Egg tempera was a primary method of painting until after 1500 when it was superseded by the invention of oil painting. A paint consisting of pigment and glue size commonly used in America as poster paint is also often referred to as "tempera paint," although the binders and sizes in this paint are different from traditional tempera paint.
