1852 1853 Burma Guess Myanmar Southern Thien Today
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image transports us back in time to the shores of Tenasserim, Myanmar, in the year 1852. The historical photograph, now unfindable under the name Thien (as recorded by Mary Evans Prints Online), captures a serene coastal scene that once played a significant role in the rich tapestry of Burmese history. Located on the southern coast of Myanmar, Tenasserim was a strategic port city during the colonial era. British influence began to take hold in the region in the mid-19th century, and by 1853, the British East India Company had established a formal presence there. However, this photograph predates that milestone, offering a glimpse into the area before the tide of colonialism began to reshape its landscape. The image reveals a tranquil harbor dotted with small boats, their sails furled against the calm waters. The shoreline is lined with trees, casting dappled shadows on the sand. In the background, the lush hills roll gently towards the horizon, their verdant greenery providing a striking contrast to the clear blue waters. Despite the passage of time, the allure of Tenasserim remains undiminished. The city's history continues to be a source of fascination for scholars and travelers alike, who seek to unravel the complex threads of Burmese history. Today, the region is a popular destination for tourists, who come to explore its natural beauty and cultural heritage. As we gaze at this photograph, we are reminded of the power of images to transport us across time and space, allowing us to connect with the past in a deeply personal way. Though the exact location of this photograph may be unfindable under the name Thien, the spirit of Tenasserim lives on, a testament to the enduring allure of Myanmar's southern coast.
