The Tamsui- Bali ferry, with Guanyinshan in the background.
There must have been ferries and ferrymen here for literally centuries. I wonder if it all stops with the opening of the bridge next year.
This ferry is the Xunfeng No. 168. I'm guessing that means at least 168 ferries with that name serving the crossing over the years.
An example of Wu Dengyi's art (巫登益), an interesting blend of traditional Chinese landscape with what I assume are modern acrylic materials and techniques.
The figures in the second image are a detail from the bottom of the first image - scholars bathing?
Most of the art seemed to be for sale. From memory this piece was a bargain at just NTD$880k.
Inside the newly-opened Wu Dengyi Art Museum in Tamsui, in a restored historic building constructed by George Leslie Mackay.
