Description: |
|
This is an actual size iron cast figure. The dog, Ya-Lei, was
very close to the heart of King Rama VI. Ya-Lei was a hybrid
dog born in the Nakhon Pathom prison. King Rama VI found it
when he inspected the prison. Ye-Lei was very fortunate to have
caught the eye of the King and was brought to the palace.
Ya-Lei was a very smart and loyal dog. The King was very fond
of Ya-Lei, so much so that Ya-Lei was envied, and was later shot
by an envious person. King Rama VI was much saddened when Ya-Le
passed away and commanded that a copper statue of Ya-Lei be cast
and placed on a pedestal in front of Phra Tamnak Chali
Monkol-asna. The King composed a poem for Ya-Lei that was
inscribed below sculpture. |
