EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Inland Travelling; A Visit to Borneo, 1875" takes us back in time to the enchanting landscapes of 19th century Southeast Asia. Captured by A. M. Cameron, this image showcases a typical mode of transportation during that era - the palanquin bearer or sedan chair. Intriguingly, we witness a man diligently fulfilling his occupation as he carries a litter along a dusty road. The photograph beautifully encapsulates the concept of traditional travel in Borneo, with its lush greenery forming an idyllic backdrop. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect - from the intricate design of the palanquin to the attire worn by both men. This snapshot provides valuable insight into life during this period, shedding light on not only their means of transport but also their profession and daily routines. It serves as a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of South East Asia. The publisher Cassell Petter Galpin Company has preserved this remarkable piece through time, allowing us to appreciate its significance today. As we gaze upon this intriguing print, our imagination transports us back centuries ago when such scenes were commonplace. A. M. Cameron's photographic masterpiece invites us to explore and delve into forgotten worlds while reminding us how far we have come in terms of transportation and technology. This image truly captures an essence that continues to fascinate audiences worldwide.
