EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print titled "Specimens of King Theebaws Army" takes us back to a significant period in Burmese history. It captures the essence of the Konbaung Dynasty, specifically during the reign of King Thibaw Min from 1859 to 1916. The engraving showcases various specimens and figures that were part of his army. The image serves as a reminder of the Third Anglo-Burmese War, which took place on 29th November 1885. Prior to this war, British forces had defeated King Thibaw's army, leading to the official annexation on 1st January 1886. This engraving was created in 1885 and demonstrates an illustrative technique commonly used during the Victorian era. The retro-styled print transports us back to the vibrant arts and culture scene of the late 19th century. Its intricate engravement showcases both historical accuracy and artistic skill. As we gaze upon this piece, we are reminded not only of its aesthetic value but also its historical significance within Myanmar (formerly known as Burma). Let this artwork take you on a journey through time, allowing you to appreciate both the beauty and complexity of Burmese history during King Thibaw's reign.
