Recently, we made a trip to revisit Dong Ho Village with a desire to meet old artisan Nguyen Huu Sam. Just
when we arrived at the dyke in the village and talked with the villagers about the artisan, they intimately told
us about him.
The old house owned by the artisan is situated in a long alley ofthe village. On the walls of the house there
are many folk paintings in different genres, from daily life paintings to landscape paintings shown in a set of
'Tour seasons"
Mr. Sam told us about his past. When he was three years old, he was instructed in the craft of making Dong
Ho paintings by his father. At five, he could help his father apply the the Dong Ho paintings. At seven, he was
able to draw with a pen and make the most difficult samples. Years went by and the soul of Dong Ho folk
paintings has kept seashell powder paint to the poonah-paper.
In the 1940s this craft flourished. At that time Nguyen Huu Sam was assigned by his parents to take the
paintings to the market for sale. Mr. Sam said that 17 families in the village had been engaged in making
Dong Ho paintings.
Artisan Nguyen Huu Sam has always been devoted to the making of Dong Ho paintings and has waited for
opportunities to restore this traditional craft. In 1967, when the local authorities assigned him to restore the
traditional genre of Dong Ho folk paintings, he gathered 50 villagers with professional skills and collected
hundred of woodblocks to establish the Dong Ho Painting Cooperative. Thanks to his efforts, such famous
paintings as "Rat's wedding", 'Rooster", "Scene of jealousy" and "Writing verses about precious flowers"
have been revived. Dong Ho paintings have been available in many parts of the world such as Japan, France,

sensible way, the child may succeed in doing very well - especially if the parents are very supportive of their
child.
