Jitr (Prakit) Buabusaya
\n1911 born in Bangkok<\/p>\n
graduated from Royal College of Arts in London, EnglandJitr Buabusaya is one of
\nthe most important figures in the history of Thai modern art. He not only took
\npart in setting up the art curriculum for
\nRongrian Phaochang (The Arts and
\nCrafts School), but he was also a pioneer Thai artist who executed his work in
\ntrue French Impressionistic Style (1940s).
\nThe influence of French
\nImpressionism resulted from his stay in Japan when he went there to work on his
\npost graduate course at Tokyo Academy of Fine Arts in 1941. At that time
\nJapanese art was widely influenced by French Impressionism and that museums in
\nJapan had a collection of French Impressionist paintings. However, Jitr’s
\npaintings done in the style mentioned include Fuji Vine Arbor (1946), Tokyo Fine
\nArts University Garden (1942) and Opulent Autum at Kurobe Gorge (1942). It is
\nvery unfortunate that many of Jitr’s paintings of Japanese sceneries
\nwere destroyed by the bombing of Tokyo during World War II. Jitr could
\nonly bring back with him the remaining paintings which were relatively small
\nin size.<\/p>\n
