EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Burmah Expedition, South Gate of Bhamo, showing the Stockade, Look-out Hut, and Guard-House" takes us back in time to a significant moment in history. The engraving by Amedee Forestier beautifully captures the essence of this expedition that occurred in Burma during the late 19th century. In this scene, we are transported to the bustling streets of Bhamo where military presence is evident. The stockade stands tall and imposing as a symbol of protection and defense. Adjacent to it, we see a lookout hut strategically positioned to provide an advantageous vantage point for surveillance. The guard-house completes this fortified ensemble with its sturdy structure. Every detail within this engraving tells a story; from the architectural elements showcasing local craftsmanship to the soldiers patrolling diligently along these historic streets. This image serves as a visual testament to both the challenges faced by explorers during expeditions and their determination to overcome them. Originally published in The Illustrated London News on March 6th, 1886, Forestier's work allows us today to appreciate not only his artistic skill but also gain insight into an era long gone. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from our private collection, we are reminded of how art can transport us through time and space while preserving historical moments for generations to come.
