This print showcases Chulalongkorn, the esteemed King of Siam, in all his regal splendor. Created by the French School in the 19th century, this colour lithograph captures the essence of a monarch who left an indelible mark on Thai history. Chulalongkorn (1853-1910) was not only a revered ruler but also a trailblazer. In 1897, he made history as the first Siamese monarch to embark on a European visit. This particular image was featured in Le Petit Journal on September 19th of that year, symbolizing his momentous journey and international recognition. Dressed impeccably in his military uniform, Chulalongkorn exudes power and authority. His portrait reflects both his status as king and his commitment to modernize Siam (now Thailand).
