Embroiderers started making this painting in 2006 at Hanoi’s Van Mieu (Temple of Literature). The work was completed after nearly 1,000 days by nearly 3,000 artisans from the XQ Vietnam Embroidery Painting Company.
The painting is 4m long, 3m wide and 167.5kg weigh. If these numbers are multiplied, the result will be 2010.
The embroidery painting features a brilliant lotus and the letter “S” for Vietnam in the lotus lake, with a temple, clouds, moon, cranes, and old villages.
