Giotto to Durer: Early Renaissance Painting in the National Gallery  by J. Dunkerton, S. Foister, D. Gordon & N. Penny

This is a fine art book at a good price.  A majority of the pictures are in color, the reproduction are of a reasonable size and both well-known and more obscure works are included.  There is also an informative text on

the making of the paintings, covering guilds, contracts and the workshop.  There is a fifty page chapter on the actual techniques: panels, canvas, framing, underdrawing, gilding, pigments, egg tempera and oil paints.
