Burma Burmese Engravings Etching Etchings Mandalay Myanmar Burmeses Masculine Persons
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative etching captures the bustling street scene in Mandalay, the last capital city of the British Burma colony during the late 19th century. The image, created in 1887, portrays a vibrant and dynamic urban environment filled with Burmese men of various ages and occupations. The men are depicted in their traditional clothing, adding an authentic touch to the scene. The street is lined with low, narrow shops, their doors open to reveal merchandise and curious onlookers. The etching masterfully conveys the sense of activity and commerce that characterized Mandalay during this period. The warm, earthy tones of the print add depth and texture to the image, further enhancing its authenticity. The masculine energy of the men in the scene is palpable, as they engage in conversation, negotiate business deals, and go about their daily lives. This etching provides a fascinating glimpse into the daily life of Mandalay during the colonial period, offering a window into a bygone era of Asian history.
