EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the year 1906, witnessing a historic moment as The Prince and Princess of Wales grace King Theebaw's palace in Mandalay, Burma. This remarkable image was captured by the talented artist Samuel Begg and featured in the Illustrated London News on February 17th of that year. The future King George V and Queen Mary embarked on a royal visit to this exotic country, immersing themselves in its rich culture and traditions. Standing tall amidst the grandeur of the palace's interior, they exude regal elegance while surrounded by magnificent pillars and columns. The photograph offers us a glimpse into an era long gone but forever etched in history. It showcases not only the architectural beauty of Burmese buildings but also highlights the significance of this royal encounter between two nations. King Theebaw himself is absent from this particular scene; however, his presence can be felt through every intricate detail within these walls. As we admire this print with awe-inspiring curiosity, it becomes evident that it captures a pivotal moment where East meets West - a fusion of cultures bound together by diplomacy and mutual respect. Samuel Begg's artistry has allowed us to relive this extraordinary event over a century later. Through his lens, we witness not just royalty but also humanity connecting across borders - bridging gaps between countries with shared values and aspirations for peace.
