EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating lithograph titled "Attentions that were too pressing, mobbed by Flower-Sellers at Hong Kong" transports us back to the bustling streets of early 20th century Hong Kong. Created by Frederic de Haenen in 1901, this print captures a vibrant scene filled with street traders and sedan chairs. In this lively illustration for The Graphic, we witness the overwhelming attention bestowed upon a group of flower-sellers. As they navigate through the crowded streets, their colorful blooms attract an eager crowd. The sellers find themselves surrounded by curious onlookers who are captivated by the beauty and fragrance of their floral offerings. Haenen's meticulous attention to detail allows us to immerse ourselves in this moment frozen in time. We can almost hear the chatter and haggling between buyers and sellers as they negotiate prices for these precious blossoms. This artwork not only showcases the daily life of street vendors but also provides a glimpse into the cultural tapestry of Hong Kong during that era. It serves as a reminder of how commerce intertwines with everyday existence, creating an atmosphere where tradition meets modernity. As we gaze upon this enchanting litho from Haenen's Private Collection, we are transported to another time and place – one where fragrant flowers fill our senses while we become part of a vibrant street scene in historic Hong Kong.
