Ink and Heritage – The Liangtuxuan Collection at Shanghai Museum 🖋️🖼️

#hellohalloween

In a quiet, elegant corner of the Shanghai Museum, the exhibition “Painting and Calligraphy from the Collection of Liangtuxuan by the Ching Banlee Family” feels like stepping into a world of calm beauty and refined taste. Each scroll and ink piece breathes history — delicate brushstrokes capturing mountains, poetry, and fleeting emotions with graceful simplicity. 🌿🖤

The Ching Banlee family carefully preserved these masterpieces, and their devotion shows. The collection bridges dynasties and styles — from flowing calligraphy that feels almost musical, to landscapes that blend mist, mountain, and meaning. Standing there, I could feel the quiet dialogue between artist and nature, thought and ink.

📍 Shanghai Museum, 201 Renmin Avenue, Huangpu District
🚇 How to get there: Metro Line 1, 2, or 8 → People’s Square Station, Exit 1
🕰️ Tip: Visit during the early afternoon for the best light to admire the fine ink details.

It’s not just an art collection — it’s a legacy of patience, intellect, and feeling, where each brushstroke becomes a whisper from the past, still echoing softly in Shanghai’s heart. ❤️
