1966
The Year of the Horse
To the Chinese the horse is a symbol of speed and perseverance; generations of artists have been inspired by its beauty and grace. The zodiacal horse associated with the destiny of Hong Kong in 1966 covered a lot of ground, bringing a royal visit, civil disturbances in Kowloon and a disastrous rainstorm. As evidenced by the following illustrations, it also left unmistakable signs of rapid and persevering progress towards the ever-increasing prosperity which, regardless of zodiacal portents, Hong Kong continues to achieve.
