EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent statue of Ram Khamhaeng the Great, a revered ruler from the Phra Ruang dynasty in Thailand. Located in Sukhothai National Park, Sukhothai Province, this image captures the essence of Thai history and culture. Ram Khamhaeng (c. 1237/47-98) is widely celebrated for his significant contributions to Thailand's heritage. As depicted by this photograph, his imposing figure stands tall as a symbol of power and leadership. Known for his accomplishments during his reign from 1279 to 1298, he is credited with two remarkable achievements that shaped Thai society. Firstly, Ram Khamhaeng played a crucial role in creating the Thai alphabet. This monumental feat allowed for better communication and preservation of knowledge among the people. Secondly, he established Theravada Buddhism as the state religion, leaving an indelible mark on religious practices throughout Thailand. The photographer Luca Tettoni skillfully captures every intricate detail of this awe-inspiring statue through their lens. The lighting highlights its grandeur while showcasing its historical significance. As we gaze upon this print by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back in time to witness the legacy left behind by Ram Khamhaeng the Great. It serves as a tribute to his enduring influence and reminds us of our rich cultural heritage that continues to shape modern-day Thailand.
