EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print captures a historic moment between two influential figures in Southeast Asian history. Paul Doumer, the Governor General of Indochina, is seen being warmly received by Chulalongkorn, also known as Rama V, the esteemed King of Siam. This front cover illustration from Le Petit Journal's Supplement Illustre on May 7th, 1899, beautifully depicts the significance of this official visit. In this enchanting image, we witness a powerful exchange as Doumer and Chulalongkorn shake hands while dressed in their respective royal costumes. The grandeur of Thai culture is evident in Chulalongkorn's attire, showcasing his regal stature and influence over his people. Meanwhile, Doumer dons an impressive military uniform that symbolizes French colonial power and authority. This photograph not only portrays a meeting between two leaders but also represents the complex dynamics of colonialism during that era. It serves as a reminder of France's control over Indochina and its impact on local cultures and societies. Preserved within private collections today, this remarkable image continues to captivate viewers with its historical significance. It offers us a glimpse into an important chapter in both Thai and French history – one filled with political negotiations, cultural exchanges, and the complexities inherent to colonial rule.
