So Long, Jumbo - 珍重 · 珍寶
(2022)
Painting
|
Oil on canvas
Known as the world’s largest floating restaurant in its heyday, Jumbo Kingdom seafood restaurant was a familiar sight in Aberdeen Wong Chuk Hang for over half a century. Modelled after traditional Chinese imperial palace design, the restaurant consisted of Jumbo seafood restaurant and Taibai seafood restaurant. Its opulent grandeur ambience attracted many admirers including Queen Elizabeth II, Tom Cruise and William Holden. Sadly, Jumbo didn’t survive the pandemic, and in June 2022, it apparently disappeared into the South China Sea. From endless crowds to silent oblivion, this is just like our beloved city riding through waves of ups and downs.

Provenance:
Wilson Tang
Hong Kong, Hong Kong
Since young, Wilson has loved oil paintings, but never had the opportunity to learn this art form until 2018. The passion for this art form only grows stronger each day, so much so that whenever he travels the world for holidays, he will definitely visit the local art galleries or museums. He especially loves Renaissance art, Baroque art and Impressionist art. His paintings mainly revolve around landscapes and sceneries, particularly the famous landmarks of Hong Kong and the world. His arts exude a warm sense of nostalgia and you may unconsciously be drawn into his world.
