EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the lives of The King and Queen of Siam. Illustrated by Henri Meyer for Le Petit Journal on June 10th, 1893, this coloured engraving captures the regal couple in all their grandeur. The King, Rama V or Chulalongkom, exudes power and authority as he stands tall in his English uniform. His stern expression reveals a ruler who is both confident and resolute. Beside him stands the Queen, her elegance radiating from every pore. Her traditional Thai attire showcases intricate details that speak volumes about her status and cultural heritage. This official portrait not only immortalizes the royal couple but also serves as a historical document capturing an important moment in time - the Franco-Siamese War. As tensions between France and Great Britain escalated over control of Laos, this image symbolizes Siamese strength amidst geopolitical turmoil. The mastery with which Meyer brings this illustration to life is evident in every stroke of his brush. From the fine lines that define their features to the vibrant colors that breathe life into their clothing, each element contributes to making this artwork truly remarkable. As we gaze upon this enchanting print today, we are reminded of both its artistic brilliance and its historical significance. It serves as a testament to the enduring allure of royalty while providing us with valuable insights into an era long gone by.
