This image displays an informational exhibit board, likely from a museum or historical site, mounted against a textured brick wall. The board is titled "THE LEE'S FAMILY" (李氏家族) in large golden characters, and prominently features "Lee Hoi-chuen Famous Cantonese Opera Clown" (李海泉 粵劇名丑) as its main subject. The board presents a biographical account of Lee Hoi-chuen, a renowned Cantonese opera performer. The text, in both English and Chinese, details his career as a clown and Xiaosheng (young male character), highlighting his popularity and contributions to Cantonese opera and film. It mentions his famous roles in "Tattered Clothes Opera," "Robbing the Dead," and "Four Great Scholar Opera," among others. It also notes his move to the United States with his family, including his son Bruce Lee, and his later return to Guangzhou where he purchased an ancestral home. Lee Hoi-chuen withdrew from the opera stage in 1958 and passed away in Hong Kong in 1965. The text also touches upon the fate of his former residence in Guangzhou (Bruce Lee's ancestral home) being taken over by housing management. Accompanying the text are several black and white photographs. These include portraits of Lee Hoi-chuen, a family photo with his wife and a young Bruce Lee, and other images depicting him in performance or with family members. Some smaller images appear to be historical movie posters or theatrical advertisements. The overall setting suggests a tribute or historical overview of Lee Hoi-chuen's life and legacy, likely located in Guangzhou, China.
