‘Contemplation 2’ is a medium size contemporary lacquer on wood panel nude painting created by Vietnamese artist Dinh Hanh in 2017. This square format features a nude figure depicted on a golden background. A woman is sitting, hugging her legs, while she is gently bending her head forward. The archaistic treatment of her feet and hands adds to the minimalist feel of the piece while the dark hue of her long black hair contrasts beautifully with the warmth of the textured golden background. Hanh has harnessed the traditional and ancient medium of lacquer on wood technique and expresses his modern interpretation through a study of the female form. His graceful and flowing approach is evident in his enchanting expressions of femininity. The curvature and clean lines often evoke a comparison to a romantic bygone era. With the purity of its lines and colors, this unframed square format lacquer on wood painting will bring a romantic touch to any room,
