Abstract
This paper is aimed at identifying the work of local literature depicted in the mural paintings on the outside of the sim at two central Isan temples. Both Wat Sa Bua Kaeo in Khon Kaen and Wat Pa Rerai in Mahasarakham depict a local Lao version of the Rama epic. The issue here is whether the literary work depicted is the Phra Ram Chadok or the Phra Lak Phra Lam.
The study includes information from previous research, literature, and field work for a comparative analysis of the literature and the paintings.
The results of the research indicate that at both wats, the story depicted is the Phra Ram Chadok and not the Phra Lak Phra Lam. Even though the two versions of the story are very similar, there are differences in the content that can be seen in the murals.Article Details
