EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of Terracotta Jataka tiles, found at Anauk Petleik Paya in Bagan (Pagan), Myanmar. The image captures a slice of history and heritage, transporting viewers to the ancient world of Buddhism in Asia. The vibrant colors and detailed patterns on these tiles are a testament to the rich cultural and religious significance they hold. Dating back to the 11th century, these historic artifacts provide a glimpse into Myanmar's past and its deep-rooted connection with Buddhism. The photograph perfectly frames the terracotta tiles against the backdrop of an old temple, creating a mesmerizing visual experience. The horizontal composition draws attention to every minute detail while also capturing incidental people in the background, adding depth and perspective. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but feel awe-inspired by both the craftsmanship involved in creating these tiles and their enduring presence throughout time. They serve as reminders of Myanmar's cultural identity and its reverence for spirituality. Christian Kober/Robert Harding has skillfully captured this moment, allowing us to appreciate not only the artistic value but also our shared human history. This photograph is more than just a snapshot; it is an invitation to explore another era through color, texture, and symbolism – all encapsulated within one frame.
