EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Dalhousie Street in Rangoon, Myanmar, in the year 1900. The street was named after Lord Dalhousie, the Governor of India during the colonial era. This image is part of a collection titled "Typical Photographs of Burma - Burmese Life and Scenes" by Rowe & Co. Ltd. , providing a glimpse into the architectural beauty and bustling atmosphere of this Southeast Asian city. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see a man standing on the shaded sidewalk along Dalhousie Street. He exudes an air of mystery as he gazes towards something beyond our view. Surrounding him are other men going about their daily lives, creating a sense of movement and activity within this monochrome scene. The buildings lining both sides of the street showcase exquisite colonial architecture that reflects British influence on Burmese culture at that time. The facades stand tall with intricate details and ornate designs, adding to the charm and character of this vibrant avenue. As we delve into this historical photograph captured by an unknown creator, we are transported to early 20th-century Rangoon – a place where East meets West through its architecture, people, and cultural exchange. It serves as a reminder of Myanmar's rich heritage and its connection with British history during the age of colonialism.
