Throughout his illustrious career, Lim Tze Peng was very fond of depicting landscapes in Singapore and all around the world. In particular, the Singapore River was a favoured source of inspiration for Lim. He was often depicting the scenes life along river, as well as parts of Chinatown and would make reference to these spaces as Dàpō and Xiǎopō (Chinese colloquialisms that loosely translate as Big Quay and Little Quay).In honour of this, the Gallery will be organising a series of walking tours that will take visitors along a portion of the River where they can imagine the scenes that Lim would have encountered at the time of his paintings, along with discussions on the history of the river and its role in the development of Singapore.
