Source C – An excerpt about the relationship between Renaissance Art and the relationship

with the development to the society during Renaissance

Renaissance artists came from all strata of society; they usually studied as apprentices

before being admitted to a professional guild and working under the tutelage of an older master. Far

from being starving bohemians, these artists worked on commission and were hired by patrons of

the arts because they were steady and reliable. Italy’s rising middle class sought to imitate the

aristocracy and elevate their own status by purchasing art for their homes. In addition to sacred

images, many of these works portrayed domestic themes such as marriage, birth and the everyday

life of the family.

(6 marks)

The Rise and Decline of Hong Kong Industry

Industrial development in Hong Kong has a long history. Making boats and shipping related

industries were the first to develop. More heavy industries developed by European companies. In

the early 20th century, Chinese merchants established factories in Hong Kong, stimulating such

industries as textile and the manufacturing of rubber shoes and torches. By the time of Japanese

occupation, local industries had already made much progress. Industrial production was almost

halted during the occupation but revived quickly after the War. Shanghai industrialists brought in

capital and technical knowhow with them; large numbers of refugees provided an immense pool of

cheap labour; capitals moved from trading to manufacturing under the impact of Korean War; the

opening of markets in the United States and Europe saw further progress in Hong Kong’s

industrialization.

The types of industries after the war differed significantly from before. With the progress of

technology and changes in lifestyle, the production of rubber products, torches and patent

medicines which had dominated before the war gradually declined, and industries such as textiles,

garments, plastics, watches and electronics took their places as pillars of the manufacturing sector.

Some of the Shanghai industrialists established textile factories in Hong Kong, bringing with them

new technologies in spinning and as a result, weaving, dyeing and finishing as well as garment-

making also developed quickly, and an integrated, vertical production line of cotton goods arose.

By the mid-1950s, manufacturing had become a pillar of Hong Kong’s economy. In 1956, Hong

Kong’s export value reached $3.21 billion, close to the level on the eve of the UN embargo ($3.71

billion), a proof that Hong Kong’s industries were making a significant contribution to the

economy.

In the 1960s, Hong Kong was the export centre of manufactured products in East Asia. The

following decade saw the spread of Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) as Hong Kong

became the production base of many overseas brand products. In the 1980s, labour-intensive

production processes were relocated to the north. Small and medium sized enterprises moved the

whole factory to China; some of the larger and more energetic companies engaged in retail trade

and brand development. This trend has continued into the 2000s.
