Small south intersection: oil on paper  19×15cm  20th century 60'sSmall south intersection: oil on paper 19×15cm 20th century 60's My beautiful hometown
This picture is a corner in Xiaonan Street, in Chengdu, the capital city of Sichuan province in China. It is where I was born and spent childhood. There was a river called Jin River in front of my home. There was a little bridge. I used to dive into the river from the bridge and swam with my fellows. It was my favorite game at the time. The picture lively reviews the life in Southwest China. There were shops door to door. The facades were made of wood boards. The second floor was used as living rooms and the ground floor was for trading. It is an epitome of the history of the old Chengdu. This picture expressed my passion for my hometown.   


Hu - Does this make sense?

我的美丽的故乡
这副画是在 Xiaonan 街的一个角落,在成都,首都在中国的 Sichuan 省的城市。是我哪里出生和度过童年。有一条河在我的家前面叫 Jin 河。有小的桥。我常全身心投入来自桥的河和跟我的伙伴一起游泳。是我的当时的喜欢的游戏。画活泼的审核在西南中国的生活。有到门的商店门。正面由森林董事会做成。第二个地板被作为使用客厅和第一层为贸易的。是老成都的历史的一个概要。这副画表达我的对我的故乡的激情。

I have used an online translator but I can't tell whether it is giving a good translation.

Thanks
