Le Pho is an important Vietnamese artist along
with Vu Cao Dam.  Born in 1902 son of Le Hoan, a
senior mandarin, Le Pho received a comprehensive
education, including training in brush training. 
At the age of 18 Le Pho went on to study at the
Ecole des Beaux-Arts of Hanoi for five years. 
Afterwards for two years he then studied at the
Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris. After completing
his education, Le Pho returned to Vietnam to
teach at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts for four years. 
Then in 1937 he returned to Paris as a delegate
in the International Exposition there.  He also
served as a member of the jury of this
exposition. During the thirties and forties, Le
Pho travelled extensively in Europe and Asia.  At
this time Le Pho painted with long, thin brushes
of watercolor on silk.  His subjects, including
birds, bamboo, and lotus flowers were
traditionally Asian.  His work was clearly
influenced by Pierre Bonnard and Odilon
Redon. For the rest of his career Le Pho was a
notable artist, represented in many exhibitions
and shows throughout Europe and the United
States. Le Pho died in 2001.  His works are in
the permanent collections of Museum dArt Moderne
in Paris, the Vietnam Museum of Modern Art, and
the Oklahoma Art Center.
