EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sport in Siam (engraving)" takes us back to 19th century Thailand, offering a glimpse into the vibrant sporting culture of the time. The image showcases an array of activities that were popular among both locals and visitors alike. In this engraving, we are transported to the banks of the majestic Marklong River, where cutting and shooting competitions are taking place. Skilled individuals demonstrate their prowess with precision tools while others engage in thrilling hunting expeditions amidst the lush topography. The scene also captures a bustling market filled with exotic goods and local delicacies, showcasing the lively atmosphere that surrounded these sporting events. The enchanting camp set up nearby reveals a fusion between tradition and modernity as participants gather around a kitchen preparing delicious meals featuring regional flavors such as Ratchburee curry. A magnificent peacock struts proudly in its natural habitat, adding an element of beauty to this dynamic scene. Through this photo print, we gain insight into Siamese sport during this era – from Tatchin martial arts to Kwang traditional dance forms – reflecting South East Asia's rich cultural heritage. This artwork serves as a testament to the diverse traditions and passions that shaped Thai society at that time. Bridgeman Images has once again captured history through artistry by preserving this remarkable piece from their Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection for all enthusiasts of Asian culture to appreciate.
