Lacquer is a medium that has been used in many countries in Asia for millennia, with exquisite works of utilitarian items surviving from as early as the Han dynasty. Yet today, only in Vietnam has it been adapted so widely as a contemporary art form. Dinh Quan is currently one of the world's leading lacquer artists, having experimented and developed innovative techniques that have pushed the boundaries of lacquer art.

In this charming lacquer painting, Golden Nude, he has used only two materials, lacquer and silver powder and leaf mounted on wood board, to create a charming rendition of the "essence" of woman. He skilfully expands the figurative image into abstraction, developing a sensuous figure sharply contoured by the graphic contrast of colours and outlined by the rich and dark negative space. The figure, originally silver in colour, has achieved a golden amber hue through the ageing of the lacquer layers. This singular artwork is unusual and striking both for its simplicity and its deep, mesmerising colours.
