Traditional Thai art is primarily composed of Buddhist art, which in turn
often has Hindu elements and iconography in it. Traditional Thai sculpture almost
exclusively depicts images of the Buddha. Traditional Thai paintings usually consist
of book illustrations, and painted ornamentation of buildings such as palaces and
temples.
Thai art, architecture and design is characterized by subtlety of design and
form with considerable use of symbols, amulets, mystical drawings and both public
and private statuary.
