EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the magical sunset over the Royal Lakes of Yangon, Myanmar (then known as Rangoon, Burma) in the 1910s. The image showcases the serene beauty of this historic city in South Asia, with its iconic pagodas and stupas silhouetted against the moody, atmospheric sky. Located in the heart of Yangon, the Royal Lakes were once the centerpiece of the British colonial administration's grand urban planning project. The lakes were created by damming the Inya and Kandawgyi rivers, transforming the area into an idyllic retreat for the British elite. In the foreground of the photograph, we can see the shimmering waters reflecting the warm hues of the setting sun, while in the background, the towering spires of the Shwe Dagon Pagoda and Karaweik Palace stand proud against the evening sky. As the sun begins to set, the light takes on a soft, golden glow, casting long shadows over the tranquil waters and adding a sense of peace and stillness to the scene. The air is filled with the sounds of birds calling to one another, and the gentle lapping of the water against the shore. The pagodas and stupas, bathed in the soft, ethereal light, seem to glow with an otherworldly radiance, inviting contemplation and reflection. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage of Myanmar, and the enduring allure of its natural beauty. It is a scene that has likely changed little in the past century, making it a precious and timeless treasure for anyone with a love for the exotic and the unknown.
