EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Expedition against King Theebaw of Burma, the Kings Pagoda, Mandalay" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print captures the essence of a pivotal event that unfolded during that time. The image showcases the grandeur and architectural marvels of Mandalay's Kings Pagoda. Standing tall and majestic against the backdrop of a vibrant sky, it symbolizes both power and spirituality. Its intricate details are brought to life through the skilled craftsmanship of the engraver. However, beyond its aesthetic appeal lies a deeper story - one of conflict and conquest. This illustration was originally featured in The Graphic on November 28th, 1885 as part of coverage on "The Expedition against King Theebaw". It offers viewers a glimpse into this historical event that shaped Burma's destiny. As we gaze upon this print today, we are reminded not only of its artistic value but also its historical significance. It serves as a testament to human ambition and exploration while shedding light on cultural heritage at risk during times of conflict. Preserved within private collections for generations before being made available through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, this engraving invites us to reflect upon our shared past and appreciate both artistry and history intertwined within its frame.
