22. Painting technique was perfected by fifteenth-century Flemish painters
Oil.
Description of technique:
Layers are laid down in transparent glazes over opaque or semiopaque underlayers. Painters could build up deep tones through repeated glazing.
Compared to tempera technique
Oils dry more uniformly and slowly, providing the artist more time to rework areas and permitting the mixing of pigments.

27. The Guild of St. Luke
As in Italy, boys were apprenticed to a master at an early age. The master taught the fundamentals of the craft: how to make implements, how to prepare panels, and how to mix colors, oils, and varnishes. Once he mastered these techniques, a painter worked as a journeyman in various cities, learning from other masters. He was then eligible to become a master and applied for admission to the guild. He obtained commissions through the guild. The guild also inspected his paintings to ensure that he used quality materials and to evaluate workmanship.
