EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Historical views of Further India (Thailand and Myanmar)" takes us back to the 18th century, offering a glimpse into the rich history and cultural diversity of Southeast Asia. The image showcases three distinct scenes from this era - a shocking punishment in Siam, now known as Thailand, where a liar has his mouth sewn shut; stilthouses nestled amidst the lush jungles of Siam; and an intriguing post-dinner trumpeter performing for the King of Pegu in Myanmar. Handcoloured copperplate engraving adds depth and vibrancy to this historical artwork, which was originally featured in Rev. Isaac Taylor's book "Scenes in Asia". This piece not only serves as a visual delight but also aims to educate young travelers about different cultures through its inclusion in Taylor's work. The photograph transports us back to Regency-era London when it was first published by John Harris in 1819. It captures the essence of Burma (now Myanmar) and Thailand during that time period, showcasing their unique costumes, architecture, and customs. As we admire this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection by Bridgeman Images, let us appreciate its significance as an educational tool that sheds light on our shared human history.
