EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to early 1900s Hong Kong with this stunning vintage print of the Temple of Ten Thousand Buddhas. The intricate details of the temple's architecture and the serene atmosphere captured in this photograph transport you to a bygone era when British colonial influence mingled with traditional Chinese culture.
The lantern slide image showcases the grandeur and beauty of one of Hong Kong's most iconic landmarks, known for its impressive collection of Buddha statues. Each statue represents a unique expression or pose, creating a sense of peace and tranquility that is palpable even through a century-old photograph.
As part of the Edwardian era, this photo offers a glimpse into an age where Victorian sensibilities still held sway, yet were beginning to give way to modernity. The blend of British Empire aesthetics with Chinese architectural styles creates a striking visual contrast that speaks volumes about the cultural exchange happening during this period.
Whether you have personal ties to Hong Kong or simply appreciate historical photography, this print from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection is sure to captivate your imagination and transport you back in time. Experience the magic and mystery of the Temple of Ten Thousand Buddhas as it appeared over a century ago, preserved for posterity in this exquisite piece.
