A Perfumer's Shop, Bombay - Framed Prints
1,150 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

The seated figure to the left is an Afghan identified by Weeks in what he termed an 'immense red turban'. Weeks executed a number of studies of shop fronts in Bombay and Ahmedabad in the late 1880s, which he worked up as finished paintings in his Paris studio later on. About the Framed Prints
