NOTE:
Wang Shaoling (Wong Siu Ling), a native of Taishan, Guangdong, was one of Hong Kong’s first generation artists. In 1913, he moved to Hong Kong and studied Western painting. In 1935, Wang and some Hong Kong artists such as Luis Chan joined the Hong Kong Arts Society where he met Xu Beihong. In 1937, together with Li Tiefu and Yee Bon, Wang went to visit Guilin with Xu Beihong. In 1938, with the encouragement of Xu Beihong, Wang left Hong Kong for the United States to further his studies in art at the California School of Fine Arts. He specialised in oil and watercolour painting.
