EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the bustling city of Rangoon, Burma (now Yangon, Myanmar) during the 1910s, showcases the incredible strength and agility of an elephant as it lifts a large wooden log using only its powerful trunk. The scene is set in an open yard, where the elephant, adorned with intricate decorative ornaments, stands proudly before a stack of logs and planks. The elephant's mahout, or trainer, stands nearby, skillfully guiding the animal as it lifts the log with ease, showcasing the deep bond between man and beast. The log, which appears to be quite heavy, is effortlessly hoisted into the air, demonstrating the remarkable power and dexterity of these magnificent creatures. During this era, elephants were widely used for various industries in Southeast Asia, including logging, transportation, and construction. Their immense strength and ability to work tirelessly made them indispensable in the shifting of heavy logs and timber. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the past, showcasing the important role these animals played in the daily lives of people in Burma during the early 20th century. The intricate details of the photograph, from the textured bark of the logs to the intricate ornaments adorning the elephant, transport us back in time, offering a unique and fascinating look into the history of Burma and the incredible animals that once played a crucial role in its industry.
