Abstract: |
In exploring Bangkok and in particular the Rattanakosin and Dusit areas one discovers a remarkable number of buildings and monuments of Italianate architectural design. A more detailed inspection reveals that most of those buildings also feature imported Italian marble on door and window frames floors and staircases. Inspection of those buildings reveals very beautiful interior paintings on walls and ceilings. |
