EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Burma (Myanmar) in the year 1895. The image showcases a traditional Burmese wagon, an emblem of transportation during that era. With its sturdy wheels and covered structure, this wagon was essential for carrying goods across the vast Asian continent. The wagon is driven by a skilled Burmese driver, guiding a pair of powerful oxen or bulls through the village's dusty streets. Surrounding them are humble huts and buildings, representing the simplicity of life in rural Burma at the time. Elisee Reclus, an esteemed geographer and writer, captured this snapshot as part of his renowned publication titled "The Universal Geography with Illustrations and Maps". His dedication to documenting different cultures shines through in this remarkable engraving. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported back to the 19th century - a time when such wagons were vital for trade and communication within countries like Myanmar. This print serves as a valuable historical artifact that allows us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the significance of transport systems in shaping nations' development. Courtesy of Heritage Images and The Print Collector archives, we can now relish in Elisee Reclus's profound contribution to our understanding of diverse landscapes around the world.
