The photo in the collection is glued to an album which was made by Dr Marriott, who worked at the Peak Hospital from c.1905 to c.1920. The text reads:
A decorative welcome arch spans a city street in honour of the Duke of Connaught, who visited Hong Kong shortly before a devastating typhoon struck the city on 18 September.
Original manuscript caption: High dignitaries in the these Celestial regions must always pass under such arches which indicate high rank. These arches are quite temporary but beautifully set up.
