EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the majestic presence of a Chinthe guarding the entrance to Kyiakausan Pagoda in Rangoon, Burma, in 1952. The Chinthe, a mythical creature with the body of a lion and the head of a human, is a symbol of protection and good fortune in Burmese culture. These statues are traditionally placed at the entrances of temples and pagodas to ward off evil spirits and bring blessings to those who enter. The image transports us back to the 1950s, a time of great change in Burma, which was then known as Rangoon and was under British colonial rule. The photograph offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Burma, which has been influenced by various civilizations over the centuries, from the Mon and Arakanese to the British and the Chinese. The Chinthe in this photograph is intricately carved from stone, with its muscular body and regal posture exuding power and grace. Its piercing gaze seems to penetrate the depths of the viewer's soul, inviting us to contemplate the mysteries of the universe and the enduring power of spiritual traditions. The photograph also reveals the tranquility and beauty of the pagoda grounds, with the lush greenery and the intricate architectural details of the pagoda creating a harmonious and serene atmosphere. The image invites us to reflect on the timeless nature of spiritual practices and the power of art and culture to transcend the boundaries of time and space.
