Artist Nguyen Gia Tri along with famous artists To Ngoc Van, Nguyen Tuong Lan, Tran Van Can formed a quartet of famous artists in the early period of Vietnamese fine arts: "Tri - Van - Lan - Can".
Nguyen Gia Tri was born in 1908. In 1936, he graduated from the Indochina College of Fine Arts, and was awarded the Ho Chi Minh Prize for Literature and Arts.
He was a pioneer in transforming lacquer paintings from decoration into artistic masterpieces and from then on he was known as "the father of modern Vietnamese lacquer paintings". He is also one of the famous artists at the forefront of creating a new artistic trend for Vietnam, with elegant lines and new ideas about lacquer art.
Familiar themes in his paintings are graceful, leisurely young ladies in dreamy natural scenery. With lacquer material, vermilion, gold, silver, eggshell, and puce, Nguyen Gia Tri had created a splendid beauty and a mysterious depth for lacquer paintings, bringing lacquer techniques to the peak, affirming the importance of this painting material in Vietnamese fine arts.
The public can find his works in the Vietnam Fine Arts Museum, the Ho Chi Minh City Fine Arts Museum and in many private collections at home and abroad. However, few people know that before the lacquer technique was demonstrated and sublimated, he had to make many sketches; many steps, many details are carefully calculated in terms of ideas, graphics, colors and layout; many of his paintings are truly his masterpieces.
