EDITORS COMMENTS
Mawlamyine, Myanmar: A Timeless Scene on the Banks of the Thanlwin River (circa 1908) This evocative black-and-white photograph captures the serene beauty and bustling activity of Mawlamyine, the capital and largest city of Mon State in Myanmar. Situated at the mouth of the Thanlwin River, also known as the Salween River, the city has long been an essential hub for transport and commerce in this region. In this image, we see a collection of boats and riverboats docked along the riverbank, their sails furled and masts still. The calm waters reflect the surrounding landscape, with the city's colonial architecture rising in the background. The scene is a testament to the rich history and cultural diversity of Mawlamyine, which has been influenced by the Burmese, British, and Mon peoples. The Mon State, home to numerous ethnic groups, has a unique blend of traditions, and the boats in the photograph represent an essential mode of transportation for the local population. The riverboats, with their distinctive designs and ornate decorations, were once the primary means of travel and trade along the Thanlwin River. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time, to an era of slow-paced living and a deep connection to the natural world. The boats on the river serve as a reminder of the enduring spirit of Mawlamyine and its people, who continue to thrive amidst the ever-changing tides of history.
