EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the breathtaking harbor of Hong Kong as seen from the deck of H.M.S. Challenger during its historic voyage from 1872 to 1876. Funded by the British Government for scientific purposes, the Challenger expedition is considered the first to carry an official photographer, documenting the wonders of the ocean and coastlines of various parts of the world, including Asia. The image presents a picturesque scene of the bustling harbor, with its distinctive skyline of tall ships and buildings, framed by the clear blue waters of the South China Sea. The photograph also serves as a testament to the spirit of adventure and exploration that characterized the Challenger expedition, which made groundbreaking discoveries in oceanography, geology, and biology. This image transports us back in time, inviting us to imagine the excitement and curiosity of the crew as they navigated the vast expanse of the ocean and made new discoveries in the far reaches of the world.
