EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a detailed scene from the Ramakien (Ramayana), an early 19th-century lacquered wood screen created by the Thai School. The screen is housed in the Buddhaisawan Chapel, located within the National Museum in Bangkok, Thailand. The image captures a moment from this national epic of Thailand, which draws inspiration from the Indian Ramayana. The intricate panel depicts various elements such as decoration, chariots, deities, demons, and ornate carriages. The black lacquer background beautifully contrasts with the gilded gold details that adorn this opulent piece. The Rattanakosin Kingdom's influence during its reign from 1782 to 1932 is evident in this artwork's style and craftsmanship. It reflects both Siamese culture and Hindu influences through its narrative storytelling and ornamental design. Photographed by eLuca Tettoni and made available by Bridgeman Images, this stunning print allows viewers to appreciate every intricate detail of this decorative masterpiece. Its rich symbolism and historical significance make it a truly remarkable representation of Thai artistry.
