Vignettes of Nanjing, China

Views and Discoveries we have found along the way

Home › Faulconer Gallery › Director's Blog: Art Worlds Every Day › Vignettes of Nanjing, China

As we walk around the streets of Nanjing and tour its sights, we capture images that speak to us about the City.  Here is a scrapbook of some of what we've found in our first two weeks.  We hope it provides some of the flavor of China's southern capitol. 

Hover over each thumbnail to see the caption, or click on the first one to begin a slide show.
