  • Chinese Paintings in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford by Shelagh Vainker

    Chinese Paintings in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford

    Wu Hufan was from Suzhou in Jiangsu province, a grandson of the painter and prominent collector Wu Dacheng. His career was spent largely in Shanghai where he formed a distinguished collection of paintings, and was involved in many institutions and organisations devoted to calligraphy and painting. His own painting style has been regarded as innovative within the orthodox stream of the literati tradition.
