The highlight of the auction is the lacquerware cabinet depicting rural landscape by the late artist Le Quoc Loc, a student of the Indochina Fine Arts College in the 1938-1943 school year. The work has a clear origin and belongs to a private collection in Hanoi. It was signed ‘L.LOC’ on the bottom right and auctioned for repatriation.

It is the third time Le Auction House has organized an auction to sell Vietnamese paintings created in the 20th Century. The previous auctions took place in April and August 2024.
