EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases King Thebaw and Queen Supayalat of Burma, taken in the 1880s by an unknown photographer. The image is held by the Royal Society for Asian Affairs in London, UK. In this photograph, we see two seated figures adorned in traditional Burmese attire and headgear. King Thebaw and Queen Supayalat were prominent members of the Burmese royal family during a tumultuous period in their country's history. This snapshot offers a glimpse into their lives before they were deposed from power. The regal couple exudes an air of dignity and grace as they sit side by side. Their costumes reflect the rich cultural heritage of Burma, with intricate details that speak to their status as royalty. Photography was still relatively new at this time, making this image all the more remarkable. It allows us to connect with a distant era and witness firsthand the faces behind historical events. As we gaze upon this vintage photograph, we are transported back to a time when kingdoms ruled and traditions thrived. It serves as a testament to both the artistry of early photography and the enduring allure of Burmese culture. With its timeless appeal, this print captures not only King Thebaw and Queen Supayalat but also our imagination as we contemplate their fascinating story within the broader context of Burma's past.
