What are the most famous paintings in Myanmar?
One of the most famous paintings in Myanmar is the Portrait of the Royal Family, which artist Saya Sawa produced in the late 19th century. The painting depicts the last Konbaung monarch with his wife and children in an informal pose with a cityscape view. Other notable Myanma artworks include the Awakening of Buddha Taṇhaṅkara, located in the Upali Thein Temple in Bagan, and works by artist Ba Nyan, such as U Ba O, Night of the Shwedagon and Timber Stacking.
