About the artwork

Lim Tze Peng began crafting detailed and intricate paintings in ink (as opposed to his earlier oil paintings) - with inspiration from artists such as Cheng Chong Swee. He produced many paintings in Bali itself, and also documented his travels to other parts of the Southeast Asian region. In this painting, ships are moored on the beach and the fronds of coconut trees cast shadows over the distinctively painted boats.
