Buddhistische Tempelanlagen in Siam

Döhring, Karl, 1879-1941, Stönner, Heinrich, 1872- · 1920 · Bangkok, Siam : Asia Publishing-House · 30 pictures

A 1920 German-language photographic survey of Buddhist temple complexes in Siam, published in Bangkok by the Asia Publishing-House and written by Karl Döhring and Heinrich Stönner for a scholarly and architectural readership. Its black-and-white plates show temple gateways, carved pediments, tiered spires and chedi against sky and foliage, offering a designer clear reference for stepped roof profiles, ornamental doorway framing and the rhythm of tall pointed silhouettes.
