View of Hong Kong

anonymous, c. 1865 - c. 1875

Some photographs in the Bauduin collection have ‘A.J.B.’ written on the back. This suggests they belonged to Albert, whose full name was Albertus Johannes. Albert’s correspondence makes no mention of a stop in Hong Kong, but the initials suggest he visited this emerging city.
