EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Yenan-Young Oil Wells, 1900" takes us back to a significant era in Burma's history. The image showcases the dominant industry of the region during that time - petroleum extraction. The creator of this photograph remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to its allure. Taken from the book "Typical Photographs of Burma - Burmese Life and Scenes" published by Rowe & Co. Ltd. in Rangoon in 1900, this snapshot offers a glimpse into the country's rich heritage and industrial development at the turn of the 20th century. The scene captured is set outdoors amidst rocky terrain, emphasizing both the natural resources and human ingenuity required for oil extraction. Yenangyaung, located in Magway region, was renowned for its flourishing petroleum industry during this period. As we admire this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported to Southeast Asia where Myanmarian workers tirelessly labored to harness their nation's mineral wealth. This print serves as a testament to their dedication and contribution towards shaping Myanmar's economic landscape. Preserved by The Print Collector and made available through Heritage Images, it reminds us of how photography can immortalize moments that would otherwise be lost to time. Let us cherish these glimpses into our past as they provide valuable insights into our shared history.
