EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Pugahm Myo: Thapinyu Pagoda, August 20-24,1855" captures the essence of ancient Burmese architecture. Taken by Captain Linnaeus Tripe during his exploration of Myanmar in the mid-19th century, this albumen silver print showcases the remarkable beauty of Thapinyu Pagoda. The image transports us back to a time when British explorers were fascinated by the rich cultural heritage of distant lands. Tripe's meticulous attention to detail allows us to appreciate every intricate element of this sacred Buddhist temple. The imposing structure stands tall against an open sky, its ornate design reflecting centuries-old craftsmanship. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of Burma's glorious past as part of the Pagan Kingdom. The pagoda's elegant exterior is a testament to the architectural prowess that flourished during this dynasty. Its grandeur evokes a sense of awe and reverence for both Buddhism and Burmese culture. Now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this historical artifact serves as a window into another era. It invites us to explore not only Captain Linnaeus Tripe's journey but also our own curiosity about different cultures and religions around the world. Through Tripe's lens, we can appreciate how photography has preserved moments in time for future generations to admire and learn from. This print is more than just an artistic representation; it is a bridge connecting us with history
