Japanese lacquer has a certain affinity to the art of painting in that some of these craftsmen gild in a special way the finest examples of this work in the discovered world. Using pure gold powder, they paint various objects in which they set flowers made of gold and silver leaf and mother-of-pearl. In other words, some lacquer work resembles painting in that it incorporates pictorial imagery; it differs from painting in depicting the images with precious materials.
