Srivilailaksana Sundornsakdi Galyavadi |
Srivilailaksana, the Princess of Suphan (Thai: ศรีวิไลยลักษณ์; rtgs: Siwilailak; 24 July 1868 – 26 October 1904), was the Princess of Siam (later Thailand). A member of Siamese Royal Family, she was a daughter of Chulalongkorn, King Rama V of Siam, born while her father was the heir-apparent. Her father had great trust in her and referred to her as My greatest-trusted lovely daughter.
Srivilailaksana was one of the vice-presidents of the Red Unalom Society (later Thai Red Cross Society) with the other princesses.
She received the royal title Krom at the 4th level Krom Khun Suphan Bhakavadi (translated as the Princess of Suphanburi; Thai: กรมขุนสุพรรณภาควดี). She died a year after receiving the royal title. The Royal Cremation was created at Nivetthammapravat Temple, in the area of Bang Pa-In Royal Palace.
Princess Srivilailak was the eldest daughter of King Chulalongkorn (Rama V) the Great of Siam and Chao Chom Manda Pae Bunnag (later elevated into Lady (Chao Khun Phra) Prayuravongse), daughter of Lord (Chao Phraya) Suravongs Vaiyavadhana (son of Somdet Chao Phraya Borom Maha Si Suriyawongse). She had two younger sisters;
She was born while his father held the title of heir-apparent to the Siamese throne; he was Prince Chulalongkorn, the Prince Pinit Prajanadh and her mother was Mom Pae. She was born outside the Grand Palace, because of an ancient tradition: Her mother was not allowed to give birth inside the palace until the prince succeeded to the throne. The privilege of birth in the Grand Palace was reserved for children of the King. Prince Chulalongkorn prepared the Nanda Utayan Garden house near the grand palace for Mom Pae to reside in.
