Description |
English: Weeks was the most avid traveler among the American orientalists. He did not limit his journeys to the Near East, but also visited India in 1882 and again from 1892 through 1894. After returning to his studio in France, he specialized in Indian subjects, which were based on photographs and drawings made during his travels. In this painting, he depicts the famous tomb erected in 1630 by Shah Jahan for his wife. |
