In his images, Mak Fung created an invaluable account of Hong Kong's evolution from the 1940s to the late 1990s. His depictions of everyday life in the formerly low-rise districts of Mongkok and Central are startling today. His salon photos of cinema stars of the 1960s similarly impress the modern viewer as poignant symbols of a simpler era.
