EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of artistry from the 16th century. Titled "A series of walking damsels painted on the eaves of the roof of Viharn Nam Tam" this exquisite painting is attributed to the Thai School and can be found at Wat Phra That Lampang Luang in Lampang, Thailand. The artwork depicts a group of graceful maidens, known as damsels, elegantly walking along the eaves of the temple's roof. Each figure is meticulously painted with vibrant colors on wood, showcasing incredible attention to detail. This masterpiece holds great historical significance as it is recognized as the oldest surviving Lanna painting. The scene portrayed in this artwork derives from an ancient story about Indra, a prominent deity in Hindu mythology. The artist skillfully captures both beauty and movement through their brushstrokes, bringing these mythical characters to life. Captured by photographer Luca Tettoni, this print allows us to appreciate every intricate detail and color palette used by the original artist. It serves as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Thailand and its artistic traditions. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness not only exceptional craftsmanship but also immerse ourselves in an enchanting tale that has been passed down through generations.
