EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of Buddha statues nestled within one of the 947 Hpowindaung sandstone caves in Monywa, Sagaing District, Myanmar. Dating back to the 18th century, these ancient caves are adorned with exquisite paintings on their walls, showcasing a rich cultural heritage. The image showcases a row of Buddha statues sitting gracefully side by side, each emanating an aura of spirituality and tranquility. The absence of people allows for a deeper appreciation of the solitude and serenity that permeates this sacred space. The historical significance is palpable as we gaze upon these weathered stone sculptures that have stood witness to centuries gone by. The intricate carvings and fading colors tell tales of a past steeped in tradition and devotion. As we explore further into the cave's depths, our eyes are drawn towards an archway that frames this ethereal scene. Its arched structure adds to the sense of grandeur and timelessness found within these hallowed grounds. This photograph invites us to embark on a spiritual journey through Myanmar's vibrant culture and Buddhist traditions. It serves as a reminder of the profound impact religion has had on shaping societies throughout history. Annie Owen/Robert Harding's skillful photography transports us to this enchanting travel destination where spirituality intertwines with artistry, leaving an indelible mark on our souls.
