Photograph taken by Gertrude Bell in Myanmar, February 1903

Description

Buddhist monks seated. "We had the funniest visit. The monks haven't enjoyed anything so much for a long time; they laughed till their yellow robes fell off their bare shoulders..... I was of no account at all when Hugo appeared, until it came to the picture taking.".
