FROM THE FAMILY OF HAN LIH-WU Born in Anhui in 1903, Han Lih-wu (Hang Liwu) studied politics at the University of London. He then returned to China and worked as a teacher before becoming Minister of Education and an official in the Nationalist Government. He also served as a liaison with England because of his familiarity with the country. When Nanjing was occupied by the Japanese troops in 1937-1938, Han Lih-wu played a role in the creation and administration of the International Committee for Nanjing Safety Zone. It was during this period that Mr. Han became active in the preservation of art: he participated in the recovery of antiquities from the Chaotian Palace, which were sent to the West in order to avoid damage during the war. Prior to the Huaihai Campaign of 1948, Mr. Han was in charge of transporting national treasures from Mainland China to Taiwan. In addition, he helped painter Zhang Daqian and his family flee to Taiwan, along with the collection of 78 paintings which were later donated to the Joint Management Office of the National Central Museum Library and Museum in Taiwan.
