EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the regal presence of King Thibaw of Burma in full court dress, circa 1900. As the last king of Burma, his reign came to an abrupt end when Britain invaded the country in 1885. The British forces forced King Thibaw and Queen into exile in India, where he eventually passed away. In this portrait, King Thibaw exudes a sense of power and authority as he sits on his throne adorned with intricate carvings. Dressed in traditional Burmese costume, he wears a majestic robe embellished with ornate patterns that reflect the exoticism associated with his culture. The image also highlights the weaponry at his side - a sword symbolizing both strength and protection. It serves as a reminder of the turbulent times during which he ruled, marked by conflict and warfare. Photographed against a monochrome backdrop, this historical artifact transports us back to the nineteenth century when imperialism was prevalent across many nations. Through this photograph's lens, we catch a glimpse into an era defined by royalty and tradition. Preserved through time by Walter Hutchinson's Story of the British Nation series from London in the 1920s, this remarkable print allows us to appreciate not only King Thibaw's significance but also serves as a testament to Myanmar's rich cultural heritage.
