Cashmere Salesman – Edwin Lord Weeks Painting – Orientalist Art - Posters
199 Rs
Edwin Lord Weeks is one of the most celebrated of the American Orientalists. Most of his paintings render empathy and belonging than a patronising or condescending portrayal.
Weeks who travelled and painted in Mathura, Benaras, Agra, Delhi, Amritsar and Bombay shows a mastery of artistic detail: most of his paintings bring together an amalgam of society, replete with men, women, animals, structures and dust; the royalty is incidental. A busy marketplace or a solitary mosque.
Original Weeks' paintings today command prices in excess of a million dollars at auctions. View Artist Collection

About Cashmere Salesman – Edwin Lord Weeks Painting – Orientalist Art
Weeks was one of the most important American Orientalist painters of the late nineteenth century and, unlike many of his peers, his work reflects his travels to the regions he depicted. Weeks' first trip to India in 1882-83 proved to be an immense source of inspiration and he returned to the country intermittently over the following decade. In 1892, Weeks traveled overland from Turkey to India by way of Persia and published a travel account.About the Posters
