stucco on pediment

The land of stucco artisans.

Phetchaburi stucco ýve derived from Ayudhaya period. The most famous masterpieces ýre in some Ayudhaya temples in Phetchaburi like Yai Suwannaram temple and Koh Kaew Suttharam temple. Til now, Phetchaburi artisans still use the same old tecniques ,style and materials which is still beautiful and full of delicacy. Some artisans added a new style by making sculptures of some poppular ministers as a politic ridiculous. Itýs just for fun like politic cartoon.
