. This photo print, titled "The Revolution in Siam" takes us back to a pivotal moment in Siamese history. The engraving, created by Alfred Sheldon-Williams around 1875, captures the essence of a significant event that unfolded in the heart of Bangkok. Intriguingly detailed, the image showcases an array of key figures and locations associated with this revolution.

Through this artwork's intricate details and meticulous craftsmanship, we are transported back to witness firsthand the struggles faced by its people during this transformative period.
