‘Dien Bien Phu’ – a massive painting of 132m wide and 9m high that took three years to be completed – was approved by an art council on May 4.
Placed at the Dien Bien Phu Victory Museum in the northern province of Dien Bien, the artwork, featuring 4,500 characters, is a panorama of the Dien Bien Phu battlefield at different times from late 1953 to May 7, 1954.
It depicts the entire army going to battle, the opening combat at Him Lam hill, the A1 hill battle, and the triumph.
The painting was done with about 30 painters drawing continuously and some occasionally. Most of the participating painters are young graduates from the Vietnam University of Fine Art.
