Sukhothai, meaning "Dawn of Happiness", is the name for a city, a kingdom, and an era. Considered the "Golden Age" by the Thais, the Sukhothai period, from the mid-13th to the mid-15th centuries, had a most profound impact on all subsequent Thai political, religious, and artistic life. This text brings together the major achievements of the period in architecture, sculpture, painting, and ceramics, and should be of interest to art historians, and students of Thai history and culture.
