A machine-embroidered view of Hong Kong that my grandmother Doreen Powe brought back to Parramatta in October 1960, after visiting her adoptive brother Arthur Janne (aka Cheng Chun Wah, the first Chinese-born Civil Engineering graduate from the University of Sydney).

It's approximately 35×25cm. On the back, my auntie Norma has simply written 'Hong Kong 1960'.
