Edwin Lord Weeks
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Edwin Lord Weeks
(1849 – 1903) was an
American
artist.
Life
Weeks was born in
Boston
,
Massachusetts
in 1849. His parents were affluent spice and tea merchants from
Newton
, a suburb of Boston, and as such they were able to finance their son's youthful interest in painting and travelling. As a young man Weeks visited the
Florida Keys
to draw, and also travelled to
Surinam
in South America. His earliest known paintings date from 1867 when he was eighteen years old, although it is not until his
Landscape with Blue Heron
, dated 1871 and painted in the
Everglades
, that Weeks started to exhibit a dexterity of technique and eye for composition—presumably having taken professional tuition.
In 1872 Weeks relocated to
Paris
, becoming a pupil of
Léon Bonnat
and
Jean-Léon Gérôme
.
After his studies in Paris, Weeks emerged as one of America's major painters of
Orientalist
subjects. Throughout his adult life he was an inveterate traveler and journeyed to South America (1869), Egypt and Persia (1870), Morocco (frequently between 1872 and 1878), and India (1882–83).
In 1895 Weeks wrote and illustrated a book of travels,
From the Black Sea through Persia and India
, and in 1897 he published
Episodes of Mountaineering
.
Weeks died in Paris in November 1903.
He was a member of the
Légion d'honneur
,
France
, an officer of the
Order of St. Michael
,
Germany
, and a member of the
Munich Secession
.
Achievements
Weeks exhibited his work in nearly every annual
Salon (Paris)
. He earned a Medal of Honor in 1884, then a Third Class Medal in 1889, followed by a Gold Medal at the 1889 International Exhibition, and finally the Legion of Honor in 1896.
