EDITORS COMMENTS
At Ease in Mandalay: A Glimpse into Colonial Myanmar In this photograph, taken circa 1887, we are transported back to the era of colonialism in Myanmar (formerly Burma). The image features a man reclining comfortably in a chair within the opulent surroundings of the King's Golden Pagoda in Mandalay. With his hat placed casually beside him and dressed impeccably in traditional clothing, he exudes an air of relaxation and tranquility. The man's focus is entirely absorbed by the document he holds - perhaps a letter or an important piece of writing. His posture suggests both confidence and contemplation as he delves into its contents. The room itself is adorned with intricate furniture, including a beautifully carved box nearby that adds to the sense of grandeur. This photograph offers us a glimpse into the complex dynamics between colonizers and colonized during this period. It captures not only the physical beauty of Mandalay but also hints at the power dynamics that were prevalent at that time. Preserved through archival means, this rare snapshot provides valuable insight into human interest during Myanmar's imperial past. As we observe this scene frozen in time, it serves as a reminder of how history continues to shape our present-day understanding.
