SUNDAY Feature on ART of Architecture -By Gautam Shah
Edwin Lord Weeks (1849-1903) was an American Orientalist Painter. He was from Boston, but relocated to Paris, in 1872. Here he became a pupil of Léon Bonnat and Jean-Léon Gérôme. He was an avid traveller, and journeyed to South America (1869), Egypt and Persia (1870), Morocco (frequently between 1872 and 1878), and India (1882–83). He made many voyages to the East. He documented and commented on his travel adventures.
Weeks, style of art was well detailed with form emerging distinctly. His selection of the scene composition was well organized.
