Subject: Western man
Date: c.1868. The back of the card gives the photographer's name as Hing Cheong, and his address as "Queen's Road, No 54. Opposite the Oriental Bank." HOPIC has an entry for Hing Cheong & Co. (see https://gwulo.com/node/31857) and places him at 66 Queen's Road Central from c.1868 til 1874. The seller dates this to c.1867, but HOPIC suggests it was taken a year or two later.
Photographer: Hing Cheong
Format: carte de visite
