About the Artwork
This haunting image, taken in the early 1900s in Northern Vietnam, portrays two individuals—possibly of the Tày or Nùng ethnic group—wearing ceremonial mourning garments. Their white robes, head wraps, and bare feet reflect traditional Vietnamese funerary customs that date back centuries, where the color white symbolizes death and reverence. Captured during the French colonial period, the photograph presents grief not as spectacle but as silent presence. Their upright stances and steady gazes offer dignity and solemnity in equal measure.
