Author: Jao Tsu-hsien |Staff member of the Archives of Institute of Taiwan History

On the Open House day in 2018, the Archives of the Institute of Taiwan History featured an exhibition, Travel Memories II—Taiwanese Painters’ Landscape Sketches, from digital records collected by the Archives in recent years. This exhibition selected four Taiwanese painters, Yen Shui-long, Liu Chi-hsiang, Chen Cheng-po, and Kuo Hsueh-hu, by presenting the records of their passports, certificates, photographs, correspondence, and paintings and exploring their life experiences of practicing goals, embarking on adventures abroad, and contributing to society. Let us trace the senior painters’ paths of crossing borders and pursuing dreams by appreciating these precious records and the abundant colors in their paintings!

New Site: Map of Formosa Under Dutch and Spanish Rule

2008-12-05

A new site "Maps of Formosa under Dutch and Spanish Rule" was built up. It contains 5 articles by Assistant Prof. Ang Kaim(翁佳音) on Taiwan maps, a map database and a bibliography database. The databases are presented in a catalogue style, providing users a channel to access map-related resources.

The new site had been demonstrated at "New Perspectives on Geographic Space - International Symposium on Historical Cartography" held by National Palace Museum on November 6th and 7th, drawing many attentions.

The site will be updated continuously, and any suggestion is welcomed.
