IMPORTANT CHINESE PAINTINGS - FORMERLY THE PROPERTY OF THE DR. K. S. LO COLLECTION
Dr. K. S. Lo was born on 2 February 1910 in Guangdong, China. At age 10 he went to Malaysia with his mother and at age 20 he went to Hong Kong. In 1935 he graduated from the University of Hong Kong with a BA degree in commerce and business. After graduation he joined the company where his father worked and was soon appointed Hong Kong manager of the firm's real estate branch. Dr. K.S. Lo began his Vitasoy business in the winter of 1937, when he was 27 years old in Shanghai, after attending a talk on "Soya Bean: The Cow of China". His Vitasoy business grew to become one of the most recognized brands in Hong Kong and in many other global regions.
Dr K.S. Lo had a great passion for Chinese art and culture, and he donated 605 yixing teapots and other tea ware pieces in 1995, enabling the creation of the K.S. Lo gallery at the Museum of Tea Ware, at Flagstaff House inside the Hong Kong Park (fig.1). Furthermore, Dr. Lo also donated many important ceramics from well-known major kilns from as early as the Western Zhou period to the 20th century. These paintings represent but a small part of his collecting interests and demonstrate the depth and breadth of his passion for art and culture.
