One of the first Western-style painters in Taiwan, Chen Cheng-po (#陳澄波) travelled extensively in East Asia, and his paintings have left their mark throughout the region. But Chen was devoted to his homeland, and his heart never left the cities and villages, mountains, forests, and coasts of Taiwan. Outside his hometown of Chiayi, Chen Cheng-po could most often be found walking the streets and alleys of Tamsui with his painting kit on his back. Chen is a storyteller, and his oil paintings reveal hundreds of years of Tamsui history.
