EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of the world's largest book, nestled within the stupas that house 729 text-inscribed marble slabs in Mandalay, Myanmar. The architectural marvels stand tall and proud, adorned with a golden hue that reflects their historical significance. Dating back to the 19th century, these ornate arches symbolize the rich heritage of Buddhism in Burma. The image showcases the intricate details of this cultural treasure, highlighting its white marble exterior against a vibrant blue sky. As sunlight bathes the scene, it brings out the vivid colors and adds an ethereal touch to this ancient place of worship. Steeped in history and spirituality, this photograph transports viewers to a bygone era where religion played a central role in shaping society. It serves as a testament to Myanmar's enduring culture and offers a glimpse into its fascinating past. With no one present in the frame, we are left alone to appreciate the sheer magnitude and beauty of this architectural masterpiece. The composition is horizontal, allowing us to take in every aspect of this remarkable structure. Stuart Black/Robert Harding has skillfully captured not just an image but also a story frozen in time - one that invites us on a journey through Asia's enchanting landscapes and diverse cultures.
