《香港古地圖》
四百年前,香港屬於明國;二百年前,香港屬於清國;一百年前,香港及九龍半島屬於英國而英國向清國租借新界。在1997前,香港自古以來都沒有屬於「中華人民共和國」。無論香港主權誰屬,被誰統治,屬於這片土地的歷史都是真實的,無論如何改朝換代,唯一不變的是「這片土地屬於這片土地上的人民」。古地圖和精準的現代地圖截然不同:沒有統一標準,測量和比例都不可靠;但每個時代皆有其特色,此系列收錄了明、清、英治時期的香港地圖作重繪及設計。古地圖除了風格各異,當中不乏沿用至今的香港地名、已易名的舊地名,甚至罕有其聞的名字。我希望透過古地圖檢視和探索香港這片土地的過去。
《Hong Kong's Antique Maps》
Four hundred years ago, Hong Kong was under the governance of Ming dynasty. Two hundred years ago, Hong Kong was under the governance of Qing dynasty. One hundred years ago, Hong Kong Island and Kowloon Peninsula were ruled by the British Empire. Britain acquired Hong Kong Island in 1842. Before the year of 1997, Hong Kong had never belonged to the People's Republic of China. These Hong Kong's antique maps have no uniform standard of measurement and proportion. This series is developed from antique maps of Hong Kong during the Ming Dynasty, Qing Dynasty and British colonial era. Through the painstaking process of re-creating these ancient maps, the unique history of Hong Kong was unveiled.
