  Phra Thihnang Phutthaisawan door panels

 

Thailand

The inner door panels at the rear of Phra Thihnang Phutthaisawan Royal Hall (fig.) are decorated with door guardians, i.e. two angels who subdue two demons. The two angels feature on a Thai postage stamp issued in 2008 as part of a set of four stamps on door guardians, though the panels have since been renovated and the direction of their faces have been slightly altered. On the outside, the door panels are decorated with gilded lacquer (fig.).
