About the Item
Lao and Burmese Peoples – Lithograph from French Indochina Exploration (1873)
This lithograph, part of Francis Garnier’s *Voyage d'exploration en Indo-Chine,* depicts Laotians and Burmese individuals from regions under Burmese possession. The vibrant print showcases various ethnic groups interacting in a market setting, wearing distinct traditional garments.
The Laotians, identifiable by their vibrant sarongs, simple blouses, and shawls, are shown alongside Burmese individuals, some with intricately tattooed bodies—a traditional practice among Burmese men, symbolizing bravery and identity. Their attire reflects the tropical climate, with women wearing long skirts and loose-fitting blouses, often adorned with woven patterns. The conical hats worn by some of the men are practical for sun protection and an iconic feature of Southeast Asian culture.
The individuals are depicted engaging in trade, as baskets of fruit and vegetables, such as bananas and pineapples, lie in the foreground. The dynamic poses and intricate details of their dress and tattoos provide an anthropological insight into the daily lives and cultural practices of these communities.
