EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures a momentous occasion in history - the reception held in honor of the King of Siam at the Siamese Legation in Ashburn Place, South Kensington. The image showcases the grandeur and opulence of this royal event, with guests dressed in their finest attire and adorned with exquisite jewels. The King of Siam, accompanied by his entourage, stands at the center of attention. His regal presence is undeniable as he exudes power and authority. Surrounding him are members of high society, eagerly awaiting their chance to engage with royalty. The Siamese Legation itself is a sight to behold. Its architectural beauty reflects both Eastern and Western influences, symbolizing the harmonious relationship between Siam (now Thailand) and Britain during this era. This engraving was originally published in The Illustrated London News on August 14th, 1897. It serves as a testament to the significance placed upon royal visits during that time period. Such events were not only opportunities for diplomatic exchanges but also occasions for cultural exchange and celebration. As we gaze upon this print today, we are transported back to a time when kings still reigned supreme and societal events like these were highly anticipated affairs. It reminds us of an era long gone but immortalized through artistry and historical documentation.
