Description:

This small gallery displays and sells exquisite hand painted scrolls out of a restored Ming dynasty courtyard house. The artwork is of a definite higher than usual caliber, and the building also serves as an artist's studio. Very well worth a visit both for the art and architecture.
Pictured is Mr. Tang, an artist in residence, working on a scroll.
