Chinese lacquer painting, as a unique medium that integrates contemporary art and traditional craftsmanship, possesses diverse artistic styles. However, the audience's perception and understanding of it remain quite limited. Therefore, this study focuses on the conceptual framework of the visual characteristics of lacquer painting styles. The framework is constructed by systematically reviewing relevant academic literature both domestically and internationally. The study extracts the key dimensions of lacquer painting style through a literature review, including artistic style, thematic content, and regional characteristics. Construct the conceptual framework of "how stylistic features influence visual perception." These dimensions are further integrated into a three-layer structure, serving as the theoretical foundation for subsequent empirical analysis and communication strategy formulation. This study aims to reveal how emerging adults in China form perception responses to lacquer painting styles through visual contact. It also provides conceptual support for the future interpretation of Chinese lacquer painting styles and public aesthetic education.
