EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the late 1910s, depicts a lively scene of boys engaged in a spirited game of football in the streets of Yangon, then known as Rangoon, in Myanmar (Burma). The image, available through Mary Evans Prints Online, captures the essence of childhood joy and camaraderie as the young players, dressed in simple clothing, focus intently on the game. Two boys in monk robes, a common sight in Buddhist Myanmar, join their secular counterparts in the fun. They are seen in the background, their shaved heads contrasting with the other boys' hair, as they kick the wicker ball with the same enthusiasm. The boys play barefoot on the dusty street, their determination evident in their focused expressions. The scene is further enhanced by the use of straw mats and wicker baskets as makeshift goals. The boys' energy and excitement are palpable, creating a sense of connection with the past and a reminder of the universal language of play. The photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of children in Myanmar during this era, providing a rich historical record of a time long past. This photograph is an excellent representation of the diverse and vibrant culture of Myanmar, showcasing the country's rich history and the resilience and joy of its people. It is a testament to the enduring power of play and the ability of children to find joy and connection in the simplest of activities, regardless of time or place.
