Burma Burmese Fans Hands Kneel Kneeling Kneels Morning Myanmar Pray Prayer Praying Prays Rangoon Yangon
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the quiet reverence of two young Burmese women as they perform their morning prayers in Yangon, Myanmar (then known as Rangoon, Burma) during the 1910s. The women, dressed in traditional Burmese attire, are shown kneeling on a mat with their hands pressed together in front of them, while a fan is delicately held in one hand to provide a cool breeze. The serene expression on their faces and the peaceful setting of the scene convey a sense of deep spiritual connection and devotion. The photograph offers a glimpse into the daily religious practices of the Burmese people during this period, providing a valuable historical record of Myanmar's rich cultural heritage. The scene is further enhanced by the soft lighting and the use of natural tones, which add to the timeless and ethereal quality of the image.
