EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of "The Burmese Expedition, Sketches on the Irrawaddy River". The engraving, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, showcases a scene from the expedition along the picturesque Irrawaddy River. In this image, one can observe a fleet of ships gracefully navigating through the river's calm waters. The boats range from large steamers to smaller tugboats, all working together to transport troops and supplies for their mission. Alongside them are traditional Burmese village houses lining the riverbanks, adding a touch of local charm to this maritime landscape. The view is breathtaking as it encompasses both natural beauty and human activity. The flat terrain surrounding the river provides an expansive backdrop for this historic moment in time. It offers viewers a glimpse into Burma's topography while conveying a sense of adventure and exploration. "The Burmese Expedition" serves as not only an artistic representation but also as a historical document that sheds light on significant events during that era. This particular engraving was featured in The Illustrated London News back in December 1885. Overall, this print transports us back to a time when expeditions like these were filled with curiosity and discovery. It invites us to appreciate both artistry and history while immersing ourselves in the wonders of travel along Myanmar's majestic Irrawaddy River.
