EDITORS COMMENTS
Eng and Chang, the famous Siamese Twins, are seen here in a charming photograph taken around 1874, when they were approximately 12 years old. The brothers, who were born in Siam (now Thailand) in 1811, were joined at the chest and shared a liver, but had separate heads, arms, and legs. In this image, they are sitting at a beautifully tiled table, engrossed in a board game with a curious visitor. The room is filled with the warm glow of sunlight filtering in through the window, casting an ethereal light on the scene. The image captures the playful and innocent nature of the boys, who were a source of fascination and wonder to people around the world. Eng and Chang were exhibited in various shows and fairs, starting from a young age, and their story became a sensation. They traveled extensively, visiting countries such as the United States and Europe, where they were treated as celebrities. Despite the challenges they faced, Eng and Chang lived a relatively normal life, getting married and starting their own families. They were known to be intelligent and independent, and were able to earn a living through their performances. This photograph offers a glimpse into their childhood, a time of simple joys and curiosity, before the world's fascination with their unique condition turned into a commercial enterprise. Eng and Chang's story is a testament to their resilience and the human spirit's ability to adapt to extraordinary circumstances. Their legacy continues to inspire and intrigue people, and this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of their unique place in history.
