EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, showcases a historical procession of majestic elephants making their way along the terrace of Dam-reys at Angkor Thom in Cambodia. Dated back to 1895, this image offers a glimpse into the past, providing us with a unique perspective of ancient Cambodian culture and architectural grandeur. The intricately carved relief on the terrace wall serves as a backdrop to this magnificent scene, with the elephants, some adorned with ornate howdahs, gracefully moving through the frame. Howdahs, a type of wooden seat carried on the back of an elephant, were used by royalty and nobility for hunting and ceremonial processions. Angkor Thom, the ancient capital city of the Khmer Empire, is renowned for its architectural wonders and intricate carvings. This photograph provides a testament to the rich history and artistic achievements of the Khmer civilization. The elephants, revered as sacred animals in ancient Khmer culture, add an air of mystique and grandeur to this historical setting. The terrace of Dam-reys, located within the Angkor Thom complex, is a testament to the architectural prowess of the ancient Khmer civilization. The terrace is adorned with numerous carvings and sculptures, making it a must-visit destination for archaeologists, historians, and anyone with an interest in ancient civilizations. This photograph is not only a beautiful work of art but also a valuable historical document, offering us a glimpse into the past and shedding light on the cultural and artistic achievements of the ancient Khmer civilization. The elephants, with their regal demeanor and ornate howdahs, add an element of majesty and mystery to this scene.
