| Centenary of Somdet Phra Nyanasamvara, Supreme Patriarch of Thailand (2012) | |
Portrait of Somdet Phra Yannasangwon, Somdet Phra Sangkharat, Supreme Patriarch of Thailand and abbot of Wat Bowonniwet Wihaan Racha, sitting in half lotus position next to his pad yot or talapat. In the top right corner are his initials underneath a three-layered parasol called chattra, while in the background, the faint silhouette of one of the bai sema, that −unlike the usual free-standing structures− is built-in on the outer wall of the ubosot of Wat Bowonniwet Wihaan Racha, is visible. |
