For me, it was the era [Mongkut] of the early-to-mid 1860s - still mysterious in a way.

During that time, and into early Chulalongkorn period, there were a handful of famed photographers that exclusively worked their magic.

Francis Chit [royal photographer]
John Thomson
Wilhelm Burger
Robert Lenz [later, into early 20th century]
Pierre Loti
King Chulalongkorn [avid photographer]
Bunnag family [extended royals]
Pierre Rossier
...among other notables and their historic work.
