EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a significant historical moment as the Buddhist Archbishop of Burmah welcomes Sir Frederick Roberts into the Monastery at Mandalay. The image, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, showcases a harmonious blend of cultures and traditions. The scene is filled with vibrant colors and intricate details that transport us to this sacred space. The archbishop, dressed in traditional robes, exudes wisdom and serenity as he receives Sir Frederick Roberts, who stands tall in his military uniform. Surrounding them are crowds of people from all walks of life - men, women, and children - eagerly observing this momentous occasion. The monastery itself is awe-inspiring with its ornate architecture and peaceful ambiance. It serves as a sanctuary for spiritual reflection amidst bustling city life. This engraving not only highlights the importance of religion but also emphasizes the cultural diversity present in Burma (now Myanmar) during that era. Through this artwork, we witness a powerful exchange between two influential figures from different worlds coming together in mutual respect. It symbolizes unity among diverse communities and reminds us of the universal values shared across religions. Published in the Illustrated London News on March 19th, 1887, this print continues to captivate viewers today with its rich historical significance and artistic beauty.
