EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century takes us back in time to Victoria, Hong Kong. The bustling Queen's Road West is depicted in intricate detail, showcasing the architectural marvels of this vibrant city. The print captures a snapshot of daily life during that era, transporting us to a bygone era where horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians filled the streets. The buildings lining Queen's Road West stand tall and proud, reflecting a blend of Western and Eastern influences. As we delve into this historical image, we can almost hear the sounds of merchants haggling at market stalls and catch glimpses of locals going about their daily routines. It serves as a window into an important period in Hong Kong's history when it was under British colonial rule. Originally published as an illustration for The Illustrated London News on March 21st, 1857, this engraving offers valuable insights into how Victoria looked during that time. Preserved within private collections until now, it allows us to appreciate the rich heritage and cultural significance of this iconic street. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are fortunate enough to witness this piece of history firsthand. This remarkable print not only showcases the beauty of Victoria but also reminds us how much cities evolve over time while still retaining their unique charm.
