Thai Village Life Stone Carving

A stone carving vividly portrays the daily life of villagers in Thailand's countryside. Three artisans are engaged in various tasks outdoors; one is shaping bamboo into thin strips using a hand tool while another weaves them skillfully onto a loom. Nearby, an artisan sits cross-legged, holding what appears to be a basket or container crafted from similar materials. A rooster stands guard over its chicks amidst scattered bamboo poles near by. Traditional Thai architecture forms part of this idyllic scene: a thatched-roof hut perches atop stilts surrounded by lush tropical foliage including palm trees under a sky painted with soft clouds.
