EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a bonze ordination ceremony taking place in a temple near Angkor, Cambodia. The engraving is part of Francis Garnier's exploration voyage through Indochina from 1866 to 1868, published in "Le tour du monde" in 1870-1871. The image showcases the rich cultural heritage of Cambodia and the significance of Buddhism in the region. The scene depicts Buddhist monks dressed in their traditional saffron robes, gathered together for this sacred ritual. Their serene expressions and graceful postures reflect their devotion to their religious order. Surrounding them are intricate architectural details of the temple, showcasing the exquisite craftsmanship that went into its construction. The atmosphere is filled with reverence as participants engage in prayers and rituals under the watchful gaze of Buddha statues adorning the temple walls. This snapshot offers a glimpse into an ancient tradition that has been passed down through generations. Through this engraving, we are transported back to a time when exploration was at its peak, uncovering new cultures and traditions previously unknown to many. It serves as a reminder of our shared humanity and our collective quest for knowledge about different parts of the world. Leonard de Selva's photograph beautifully captures this momentous occasion, allowing us to appreciate both its historical significance and artistic beauty.
