On a trip to Korea in 1911, he was asked to paint the king. Foujita seemed destined for a career in the Orient until he traveled to London in 1912 and then, in 1913, went to live in Paris. He discovered European contemporary art, much as the French, in the nineteenth-century, had discovered Japanese prints. Foujita had his first exhibition in Paris in 1917 and by 1924 he was one of the most important exhibitors at the Salon d' Automne. He returned to Paris at the outbreak of World War II and remained there until 1941 after which he spent nine years in Tokyo" (This information was obtained at www.3d- dali.com/Artist-Biographies/ Tsuguharu_Foujita.html) Shipping extra.
