Xubeihong is arguably the most revered painter in China, and this multi-story gallery houses the collection donated by his family following his death in 1953. The artist is best known for combining traditional techniques with western composition to create paintings symbolic of a modernized #China. Having studied oil painting in France, Xubeihong is truly a master at his craft, and the breadth of his talent can be seen at the gallery. The memorial hall is free to enter, and being a little-known gem, it’s a great place to escape the crowds. #paintings #free #art #gallery
