EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic presence of a Large Figure of Buddha on the Shwe Dagon Platform in Rangoon, Myanmar, dating back to 1900. The creator remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to this remarkable piece. The image showcases the grandeur of Burmese architecture and religious devotion. Situated on Singuttara Hill, the figure sits serenely amidst lush palm trees and verdant nature. Its colossal size commands attention as it overlooks the bustling city below. Buddhism is deeply ingrained in Burmese culture, and this photograph beautifully portrays its significance. The seated Buddha exudes tranquility and wisdom, symbolizing enlightenment for all who encounter it. Local people can be seen surrounding the statue, paying their respects with reverence. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this snapshot from history. It transports viewers back to a bygone era when Burma was still known as Rangoon and offers a glimpse into daily life during that time period. As we gaze upon this sacred image captured by Rowe & Co. , Ltd. , we are reminded of the power of faith and spirituality transcending borders and time itself. This photograph serves as a testament to both human creativity in capturing such beauty through artistry as well as our enduring connection with something greater than ourselves – religion.
