Acquired directly from the artist.

Su Tu (1921-2014) was a native of Nan’an, Fujian Province. During the War of Resistance, Huang Yongyu came to the Xiamen Jimei School, where he worked with Su Tu together as text and art editors for the school magazine and became friends. In 1947, Su Tu came to Taiwan with the Nationalist government, and the two lost connections with each other. In 1990 they were reconnected through a newspaper. In the end of 1993, after being separated for sixty years, Su Tu brought his entire family to Hong Kong to reunite with Huang Yongyu. The couple and their three daughters each received an artwork from Huang Yongyu as a gift.
