Edwin Lord Weeks - Paintings


Edwin Lord Weeks was an America painter. He became famous in Paris at the time of salon painting for his paintings of oriental landscapes.
Born: in the year 1849 in Boston
Died: in November 1903 in Paris, France
Due to the splendid financial situation of his parents, Edwin Lord Weeks has the opportunity to pursue his passion for painting on different journeys already at young age, and ultimately to study at the École des Beaux Arts in Paris under Léon Bonnat and Jean-Léon Gérôme. Weeks’ paintings speak thematically of his numerous journeys through South Africa, Persia, Morocco, India and Egypt. In addition, he writes a travel diary, due to which his work can be related to the different countries and places. The oriental paintings are very much in demand in the Paris salons and soon become a separate artistic genre, in addition to the pompous theatrical depictions and sweet mythological scenes, in which Edwin Lord Weeks becomes very successful.
