EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment when former Conservative politician Chris Patten assumed his role as the 28th and final Governor of Hong Kong. Taken on July 9,1992, it showcases a general view of Central, seen from Tsim Sha Tsui on the opposite side of Victoria Harbour. The image transports us back to an era marked by political shifts and colonialism. The skyline is dominated by modern architecture and towering skyscrapers that symbolize Hong Kong's status as a thriving global city. This bustling metropolis served as a crucial hub for business and trade in Asia during the late 20th century. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of the significance of agreements made between nations and territories. It serves as a reminder that Hong Kong was once under colonial rule before its handover to China in 1997. Roger Allen skillfully captured this momentous occasion without any human presence, allowing us to focus solely on the remarkable buildings that shape Hong Kong's cityscape. This image evokes feelings of awe for both architectural marvels and historical milestones. Whether you have personal ties to Hong Kong or simply appreciate travel photography, this print offers a glimpse into one of Asia's most vibrant cities during an important chapter in its history.
