dc.description	Burma is rich in history and culture. During the colonial era, it was considered an "exotic land" that extended easwaeds form India, then under the rule of the British Raj. When the British colonized Burma, they brought with them the latest technology in cameras and photographic reprodution and, since these were introduced to Bruma as early as the middle of the 9h century, Bruma is also a coutyy richly catalogued and photographed. The new technology was first popularixed by western preactitoners (Germans, Italians, and, of cruse, British) and upper-class pattrons but the gradeually spread out to the mass maket. The use of photography throughout the Brithis colonial period production of a vast photographic recode of Burma, creating awc-inspiring i,pressions of its people, culrure myriad way of life, colonial society and varied scenery.
dc.description.abstract	This book, Unseen Burma - Early photography 1862-1962, is my tribute to this wonderful country and her people. Old photographs spanning one hundred years provide proof of its past glories. In this digital age, countless photos are taken daily, yet hoe many will be treasured in the next century. Faces of people who are long gone, traditions and lifestyles that are forgotten in the modern world, and landscapes that are now altered, these photographs are a treasure trove that I would like to share.
