  1. The Many Facets of Unique Hong Kong Themed Art

  2. Not very long ago existed a sleepy and laid-back village where fishing was the main source of livelihood and most people called the sampans, the flat-bottomed boats with wooden sails, their home. Today, the same place has miles upon miles of steel and glass skyscrapers and the residents are one of the most affluent classes in the world. Yes, you got it right, welcome to the island of Hong Kong!

  3. The people of Hong Kong are always focused on their roots and the rich traditions that the city has to offer. This is one reason why Hong Kong themed artis among the most coveted in the world. This is not a rare phenomenon. Specific landmarks are associated with places and are brought out beautifully in the art of those cities. Some common examples that spring to mind are the Eiffel Tower of Paris, the Big Ben of London, the gondolas of Venice, and the cathedrals of Rome. • What makes Hong Kong themed art stand out from the crowd is the subject of the artworks. Unlike other cities, it does not glorify monuments or landmarks. Instead, the focus is on the way of life that Hong Kong always had and the objects that represent their rich past and traditions.

  4. What can you expect when you plan to invest in Hong Kong themed art? • The one subject that you can bank on to offer a large range of artworks is the sampans, the wooden boats that once dotted the Hong Kong harbor. Many residents still fondly remember these boats where previous generations spent most of their lives in. It is not uncommon to find these boats sailing the high seas off Hong Kong and hence, sampans still form the core of Hong Kong themed art. You can get art related to sampans in various base colors and sizes, both framed and unframed to suit any décor. Bring a slice of Hong Kong into your home with a sampan wall art. • Mafan is another theme that is much-loved by the people of Hong Kong. Though the word in Cantonese means bothersome, there is a lot that is related to it. You will get exquisite prints that have this word in various patterns and designs and these are available in neutral colors like cream and white with dark colors for patterns. Here too, you will be spoilt for choice in the range available. • Hong Kong themed art is generally inspired by the love of the people for both the city and nature. You will get an affordable collection of themed art mainly depicting local scenes like the junk boats, trams, locksmiths, and of course the quaint and favorite double-decker buses popularly called Ding Ding. Most importantly, these are available in a range of bright and neutral colors and are just right to decorate your home.
