Special Signed copy by Marcel Heijnen, and Stamped copy by calligrapher master Taiyuan Sensan 太原先生:

“Taiyuan Sensan's work appears in the Dutch Photographer Marcel Heijnen’s Hong Kong Shopcats book, from the front cover onwards.”

「太原先生的作品目前可以在荷蘭籍攝影師Marcel Heijnen的《香港舖頭貓》這本書看到，從封面開始，幾乎每一面都可以欣賞到他的墨寶。」

When photographer Marcel Heijnen moved to the city he was immediately drawn to these photogenic mouse-hunters, and this book is the charming result. While the cats are undoubtedly the furry celebrities of his photographs, each shot delivers an insightful context of Hong Kong’s traditional trades. From dried fish and rice to paper offerings, the backdrop of each shot presents a portrait of Hong Kong’s local culture.

當攝影師 Marcel Heijnen 搬到香港這座城市時，他立即被這些吸晴的老鼠獵人所吸引，成就出這本書的迷人之處。雖然毛茸茸的貓咪無疑是他作品中的主角，但每張照片都同時傳達出香港傳統行業的背景。從乾貨到米及手工紙製品，每張照片的背景都展現出香港當地文化的寫照。
