THE PAGODAS OF SAMKAR

Stipple engraving by James Denison-Pender on two sheets
of optical crystal, each engraved on both sides, mounted
on a wood and perspex stand

Height 25cm, width 13cm.

The village of Samkar stands on a man made lake south
of Inle Lake in Burma. The pagodas, partly submerged,
seem to grow out of the water. An oxcart takes supplies to
the village from the boats which have come from the
market.
