The Peak at Hong Kong.
A distant view of the Peak of Hong Kong island from the south-west taken from Victoria Harbour, Hong Kong. The newly built arcaded neo-classical Queen's Building (completed in 1899) can be seen in the middle distance with part of Prince's Building on its left. In the background the Peak of Hong Kong Island rises up dramatically, with many buildings around the base of the peak. In the foreground there are boats plying the harbour.
