From the 1950s to 1960s, Wu Buyun painted a series of works centring on the lives of the working class people in Hong Kong. Not only are they artworks, but they are also important historic records that document the sights and cultures of the time. In Fishing Port, Wu Buyun painted animated scenes of shuttling sampans, fishery activities, and quotidian snapshots of the fishing community. By infusing Chinese ink painting brushwork into oil painting, the artist delineates the various motions of the waves with rhythmically rich brushstrokes. The gleaming light of the harbour is faithfully brought to life by Wu's sensitive use of orange, pink, and varying shades of blue.
1950至60年代伍步雲以香港勞動階級生活為題創作了一系列作品，它們不只是繪畫、更是記錄當時香港風貌與文化的重要史料。熙來攘往的舢舨、工作中的漁民，伍步雲1963年的創作《漁港》生動地描繪香港仔水上人家的日常生活。藝術家將傳統中國筆法融入油畫中，以短促、富有韻律感的線條筆觸勾勒出波浪的流動感，透過深淺不一的藍搭配橘色和些許粉色，表現戶外的光線變化。
