S.'s collection had been generously donated in the name of Bei Shan Tang to the Art Museum in many batches. Comprising of more than 5,800 items, these gifts form nearly half of the permanent collection of the Art Museum. They are both the core and the highlight of the Museum's collection. This exhibition of The Bei Shan Tang Legacy - Gifts of Chinese Art is a selection of the most important items of the gifts from J. S. They include paintings, calligraphy, calligraphic rubbings, ceramics, jade and hard stone carvings to bronzes, seals, and carvings in bamboo, wood, ivory and bone, inksticks, items for the scholars' studio and furniture. The exhibition, to be installed in all the four galleries of the Art Museum, is a tribute to J. S. for his generosity and lifelong support to the Museum. It is also an unprecedented comprehensive display of the collection which is well known to many by its reputation. But because of the modesty and low profile of J. S. few actually have had a first-hand knowledge of it." excerpt from the introductory text by Peter Y. K. Lam Director, Art Museum, 2009.
