Lot description
The artwork depicts a traditional building with an imposing high gateway, surrounded by lush greenery. The colours range from shades of green and brown. On one side several long planks were stacked, indicating that the owner could have been in the sawn wood business. Kuo Juping (the name was taken after a water plant) was in the pioneering batch of students at the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts in Singapore but had to return a year before graduating to tend to his father’s import-export business, Sing Guan Thye & Co. He was a founding member of Thursday Art Group and Penang Chinese Art Club in 1936.
