The image shows the striking sign of the Ming Court Hotel against the characteristic backdrop of Hong Kong's skyscrapers. The faded colour, peeling corners and mix of Chinese and English characters make this moment a symbol of the city's history and transformation. In the background, various apartment blocks and commercial buildings line up, emphasising Hong Kong's typical urban density and vertical architecture. The scene speaks for the decades of change between tradition and new beginnings that characterise the metropolis. The picture is suitable as a statement piece for fans of street photography, retro aesthetics, architecture and travel culture. It brings both nostalgia and modern metropolitan spirit to any room - whether living room, hotel foyer, bar or agency - and emphasises the combination of memories, identity and progress of the Asian metropolis.
