The tempera is then applied and built up slowly in a series of thin, transparent layers. For this work the smoothness of the surface is contradicted by the tridimensionality of the "bugnato" effect painted on the 2 sides of the panel. Bugnato is a type of rustication, a masonry technique particularly used in the Italian Renaissance architecture...
