No. 12. Tantabeng. Group of Pagodas. Photographer: Tripe, Linnaeus
- Scope & Content:
-
Genre: Architectural Photography
View of three ruined brick and stucco temples at Tantabeng, a few miles north of Yenangyaung on the east bank of the Irrawaddy (which is just visible in the extreme left background of this picture). The visit is mentioned in Yule's narrative, and Tanteben is marked (with a question mark) on the map in that volume. With letterpress note: 'These buildings are in a remarkable and ancient style, seen more highly developed at Pugahm [Pagan]. The interiors are painted; and almost by the designs remind one of Byzantine frescoes rudely copied'. A brief description of the monuments is given at p.34 of Yule's Narrative.
