Chinese Painting and Calligraphy

With support and donations from Professor CHAO Shao-an and his family, the museum now has an outstanding collection of this Lingnan master's paintings and calligraphy works. What's more, the museum is home to furniture and paraphernalia from his studio, original illustrations from his book A Study of Chinese Paintings, his sketchbooks, and his personal collections of photos, books and newspaper clippings. All of these are valuable cultural assets for the study and appreciation of Professor Chao's art.
