Taiwan postcards by Mori Ge'Juo 森月城の台灣的風景繪葉書


The postcard above is from 森 月城の《台灣的風景繪葉書》;「滾滾長江東逝水、浪花淘盡英雄,是非成敗轉頭空、青山依舊在、幾度夕陽紅;白髮漁樵江渚上、慣看秋月春風,一壼濁酒喜相逢、古今多少事、都付笑談中」。 It is a view from the front yard of the 淡水公會堂 looking north [the unseen Guan-yin Mountain is on the left bank of Danshui River], painted by Mr 森月城Mori Ge'Juo (1887-1961) in the mid-1930s. The cited "poem" is a Chinese 詞, composed by 楊慎 (1488-1559) of Ming Dynasty [明楊慎《二十一史》彈詞第三章《說秦漢》], performed in the style of 臨江仙.

  1. Yes, isn't it. Danshui has changed a lot since then. Let's hope the over-development now is not at the expense of its old character.
