Publisher's Synopsis
Fabrizio La Torre, Italian photographer and great art enthusiast, lived in Bangkok from 1956 to 1961. Having gone there to work in a newly established company, Italthai Industrial, he took a series of photographs in Thailand depicting the everyday life of the Thais at the time. Using a neo-realistic, intimate style which characterises all of his work, La Torre was able to capture sincere moments which tell the story of an era. Bangkok That Was is the first book drawn from the Asian photographs of Fabrizio La Torre.
