Victoria Harbour, Hong Kong, c. 1925

 Item
Reference Code: GBR/0115/RCS/Y30383A/7

Scope and Contents

1348 x 230 mm. A panoramic view of Victoria Harbour, Hong Kong, with large fuel storage tanks in the foreground (bottom-left), and looking out across the water towards Victoria Peak and the Kowloon Peninsula. The panorama was probably published by the Inter National Photo Co., Hong Kong, as it is very similar in style and photographic process to Y30383A/6. It is therefore thought to date from c. 1925 (source: Klaus Liphard, contributor to Gwulo: Old Hong Kong). The photographer has not been identified.
