On 9 November
2016, ca. one month after the
demise of
King
Rama IX,
on the day of the auspicious number
nine,
all
11 of His Majesty's
White Elephants
assembled
at the
Grand Palace
with their respective
mahouts
dressed in black, as a tribute to the late
King
Bhumipon Adunyadet. One elephant
was carrying a large portrait of the King with one of
his late White Elephants (fig.)
and another had a
drummer
on its back beating a
klong thad
(fig.). |
