The Conflagration of Dalla on the Rangoon River - A Haunting Nighttime Scene
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print titled "The Conflagration of Dalla on the Rangoon River" we are transported to a dramatic and haunting scene. Plate 17 from Rangoon Views, engraved by George Hunt in 1826, captures a moment of chaos and destruction amidst the serene moonlit landscape. As darkness envelops the river, ships and boats become mere silhouettes against the fiery glow that engulfs Dalla. The paddle steamer stands out as it valiantly battles against both fire and water, its smokestacks billowing with determination. Flames dance across the surface of the river, reflecting an eerie light upon everything they touch. Amidst this turmoil, smaller boats scurry about like tiny insects desperately trying to aid in rescue efforts or escape from danger's reach. The air is thick with tension as people aboard these vessels frantically navigate through treacherous waters. This image serves as a powerful reminder of nature's unpredictable wrath and human resilience in times of crisis. It transports us back to Burma in 1826 when this devastating conflagration occurred – a historical event etched forever into memory through Joseph Moore's artistry. As part of The Stapleton Collection housed within a private collection today, this print offers us an opportunity to reflect on our own capacity for strength during times of adversity. Let it serve as a testament to those who have faced
