“Hanoi Spring” exhibition opens in Bangkok
Update: Jun 27, 2011
The event marks the 35th anniversary of the establishment of Vietnam-Thailand diplomatic ties (August 6).

The exhibition showcases 80 paintings of Hanoi’s old quarter, girls wearing traditional long dresses (Ao Dai), spring time, traditional Lunar New Year’s celebrations, daily life in Hanoi, and Ha Long Bay. Portraits of late President Ho Chi Minh, the King of Thailand, Karl Marx and Vladimir Lenin are also being displayed.

 

Thai painter Dinhin Rakpong Asok said he was very impressed by the girls in Hanoi during his visit to the capital and Ha Long Bay and he has produced many pictures of them.

 

He added that he drew a portrait of late President Ho Chi Minh because he studied the history of Vietnam and knew that President Ho Chi Minh is considered a father of the Vietnamese people because he brought independence and freedom to the nation.

 

Vietnamese painter Luong Khanh Toan displayed 12 lacquer paintings of Hanoi girls and the city’s landscape to introduce Vietnamese culture and customs to international friends.

 

A similar exhibition was also held in Hanoi in May.
