Pugahm Myo: Gauda-palen Pagoda

Linnaeus Tripe British

Not on view

The photographs Tripe made on the mission to Burma reveal his methodical approach. The carefully planned sequences of pictures show sites from varying distances and viewpoints, creating a systematic visual record. At Pugahm Myo, he first photographed the scene from afar then moved closer to depict the buildings and their layout in greater detail.
