EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a captivating scene in Kengtung, Burma. Taken by Georges Bertin Scott in the early 20th century, it offers a glimpse into the unique practices of this region. In the image, we see hay piled high in a tree as a clever method to keep it away from cattle. The photograph is part of a private collection and was featured as an illustration for Sir J George Scott's book "Burma and Beyond". The author, known for his extensive knowledge of Southeast Asia, sheds light on the cultural intricacies of this fascinating country. The composition showcases not only the beauty of nature but also highlights how local communities adapt to their environment. The trees play an essential role in preserving valuable resources while ensuring that cattle do not have access to them. With its botanical elements and natural history undertones, this print serves as both art and documentation. It transports us back to a time when life was simpler yet filled with ingenious solutions to everyday challenges. As we explore this image further, we are reminded of Burma's rich heritage and its place within Indochina. This piece invites us to delve deeper into Asian culture while appreciating the artistic value captured through photography.
