Oil on cardboard mounted on wooden panelSigned and dated 1982 lower left21 x 30 cmVery good condition"Bui Thanh Phuong (born in 1956) is the son of the artist Bui Xuan Phai (1920-1988). He considers himself a self-taught artist, although he learned to paint at a young age under the guidance of his father. The artist specializes in painting landscapes, nudes, and portraits; among all his subjects, he is most famous for his works depicting Hanoi's Old Quarter, the same theme that had brought his late father international recognition. Phuong attempted to emulate his father's artistic touch but gradually developed his own personal style and visual vocabulary in his depiction of the streets of Hanoi."
