EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Burmese War, European Troops despatched from Rangoon to the Pagoda Garrison, at Pegu" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print offers a glimpse into the Second Anglo-Burmese War. In this scene, we witness a flotilla of boats sailing along the river towards Pegu. The European troops are being transported on these vessels as they make their way to reinforce the Pagoda Garrison. The composition is filled with action and movement; soldiers can be seen standing tall on deck while others operate tugboats that guide these mighty vessels through the water. The image not only captures the military aspect of war but also showcases the natural beauty of Burma's landscape. Lush greenery surrounds both sides of the riverbank, adding depth and serenity to this otherwise intense situation. "The Burmese War" engraving was originally published in The Illustrated London News on March 19th, 1853. It serves as a historical record and testament to Britain's involvement in conflicts overseas during that era. As we gaze upon this print today, it reminds us of our shared human history and encourages reflection on how far we have come since those turbulent times.
