sha's artistic journey encapsulated a transition from classicism to impressionism and abstract art. his grandson, sha yisong, noted that many of the exhibited works were brought back from europe, marking sha's first artistic peak achieved overseas.

scheduled during the summer holidays, the exhibition aims to inspire the younger generation with sha's vivid depictions of history and culture. the exhibition runs until sept 8 at the basement level of the zhejiang provincial museum's zhijiang branch.
