EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of Burmese culture and the grace of Burmese girls during the late 19th century. Taken circa 1890 by the renowned Klier Studio in Burma (now Myanmar), the image showcases two young Burmese girls adorned in traditional attire, holding parasols to shield themselves from the tropical sun. The girls are dressed in long, flowing robes, known as longyis for the lower half of their bodies, and blouses, or taungsas, for the upper half. Their hair is styled in intricate braids, adorned with flowers and beads, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of Burmese women. Parasols were an essential accessory for Burmese women during this era, serving both as a fashion statement and a practical tool to protect themselves from the intense Burmese sun. The parasols, made of silk or paper, were often intricately decorated with gold or silver paint, beads, and embroidery, adding to the overall elegance of the wearer. The photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of Burmese women during the colonial era, providing a window into their traditions, customs, and fashion. The image is a testament to the resilience and beauty of the Burmese people, who have managed to preserve their unique cultural identity despite the influences of foreign powers. This photograph is not only a valuable historical document but also a stunning work of art, capturing the essence of a bygone era and the timeless beauty of Burmese women.
