EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Ewing Galloway takes us back to Siam in the 1930s, offering a glimpse into a time when elephants were considered the kings' special property. The image showcases these majestic creatures roaming freely across the plains, their presence both awe-inspiring and disruptive to local crops. Periodically, groups of elephants are captured, some of which undergo training to carry howdahs. In this vibrant snapshot from Geographical Magazine's Volume 5, we see an outdoor scene where people coexist with these magnificent animals. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of Thailand's rich cultural heritage and its deep connection with nature. The juxtaposition between humans and elephants in this picture serves as a metaphor for the harmonious yet sometimes tumultuous relationship between man and beast. It reminds us that even though elephants were regarded as royal possessions during that era, they still possessed an untamed spirit that could wreak havoc if left unchecked. Ewing Galloway skillfully portrays this historical moment through his lens, capturing not only the physical beauty of Siam but also its unique traditions and customs. This print transports us back to a bygone era in Thai history while simultaneously highlighting the timeless allure of these magnificent creatures. As we admire this portrait from The Print Collector's collection, it is impossible not to be captivated by its vivid colors and attention to detail. Through this image, we gain insight into Siam's past while appreciating its enduring legacy in modern-day Thailand.
