Vu Cao Dam (1908-2000) was a key French artist in the development of Vietnamese art in the early 20th century. Vu Cao Dam specializes in oriental gouache and silk painting, often with portraits, but also with folklore and religious themes. Vu Cao Tan's paintings are often based on humanistic knowledge, such as depicting the four academic pursuits of Vietnamese literati, reflecting his formative years. Nguyn Du's 18th-century novel Kim Vn Ki u was also a favorite of Vu, as he often depicted scenes from the famous story, evoking the love and hope that resonated so strongly with the Vietnamese people.
