This is part of meaningful activities to welcome the 126th anniversary of Ho Chi Minh’s birthday and the election of deputies to the 14th National Assembly and People’s Councils at all levels for the 2016-2021 tenure.
At the exhibition, 42 oil paintings by famous painters, including Pham Thi Thanh Mai, Dang Binh Ngo, Bui Trong Du, and Vu Tuyen were showcased. The exhibit explores the beauty of the lotus flower. Several typical paintings, such as “White lotuses”, “Lake of lotus”, "Pond of lotus” and “Pink lotus”, are also on display.
