TitelPortrait of Wee Boon Teck
HerstellerLow Kway Soo & Co
Beschreibung“For [this] portrait, Wee Boon Teck dresses up in a Chinese top with baggy trousers. He matches this outfit with a homburg and a pair of pumps, two fashion articles which were more likely to have accompanied a European suit. In combining the styles of both East and West, Wee simultaneously embraces tradition and modernity.” (Inherited & Salvaged, Family Portraits from the NUS Museum Straits Chinese Collection, Page 112).
