EDITORS COMMENTS
A Kioum, or Buddhist Monastery in Burma: A Captivating Glimpse into the Sacred Spaces of Ancient Ava This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving, created by Andrea Bernieri from Giulio Ferrario's 'Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World' published in Florence, Italy, in 1844, offers a captivating glimpse into the spiritual heart of Burma, specifically the Kioum, or Buddhist monastery, in the ancient Kingdom of Ava. The image reveals a serene monastery complex nestled amidst lush greenery, with its red-roofed buildings harmoniously blending into the verdant landscape. Monks, dressed in their traditional saffron robes, can be seen going about their daily routines, deep in meditation or engaged in quiet contemplation. The intricate architectural details of the monastery buildings are a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Burma. The ornate arches, intricately carved pillars, and the golden stupas gleaming in the sunlight all contribute to the monastery's ethereal beauty. The peaceful ambiance is further enhanced by the presence of sacred elephants, revered animals in Burmese Buddhism, wandering around the monastery grounds. Their presence underscores the deep connection between the people and their faith, as well as the harmonious coexistence of humans and animals in this sacred space. This illustration, created over 175 years ago, offers a window into the past, providing us with a rare glimpse into the daily life and spiritual practices of the Buddhist monks in Burma during the 19th century. It is a poignant reminder of the enduring power of faith and the importance of preserving our cultural heritage for future generations.
