EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the largest perfect bell in the world, located in Mingun, Burma, back in 1908. Created by the Stereo Travel Co artist, this image transports us to a time when this magnificent bell weighed an astounding 90 tons. Cast between 1808 and 1810 for King Bodawpayas stupa at Mingun Pahtodawgyi, it held the title of being the largest ringing bell globally until the year 2000. Unlike traditional bells with clappers, this colossal masterpiece is rung by striking its outer rim. The photo captures a moment frozen in time as people stand around this awe-inspiring structure amidst lush jungle surroundings. It offers a glimpse into both religious and cultural aspects of Asia during that era. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and character to this century-old photograph while emphasizing its historical significance. As we explore every detail within this stereoscopic card from The Print Collector collection, we are transported back to an era where travel was an adventure filled with discovery. This image serves as a reminder of Myanmar's rich heritage and Buddhist traditions that have stood strong throughout centuries. It encapsulates not only the grandeur of Mingun but also represents a fascinating chapter in human ingenuity and craftsmanship.
