EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting city of Bangkok in 1898. Captured by Christian Wilhelm Allers, it showcases the magnificent Wat Chaeng, also known as Wat Arun, standing proudly on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River. The temple's exquisite architecture is a testament to its rich history, dating back to the 17th century. Its towering pagoda dominates the skyline, drawing visitors from far and wide with its spiritual allure. The image portrays a scene that seems frozen in time - a serene river flowing peacefully alongside this architectural marvel. Boats gracefully glide along the water's surface, adding an element of tranquility to this bustling cityscape. Punting boats can be seen dotting the river as locals and tourists alike navigate through these ancient waterways. Allers' lithograph captures not only the physical beauty of Wat Chaeng but also conveys a sense of reverence for Buddhism and its followers. It serves as a window into Siam's cultural heritage during this period. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from "Rund um die Erde" we are transported back in time to experience both the grandeur of Bangkok's past and its enduring spiritual significance. This print stands as a testament to Christian Wilhelm Allers' artistic prowess and his ability to capture moments that transcend time itself.
