Edwin Lord Weeks                                                          

Edwin Lord Weeks (1849 - 1903), fue un ilustrador y pintor norteamericano nacido en Boston, Massachussets (Estados Unidos) en el año 1849.

Fue alumno de Léon Bonnat y de Jean-Léon Gérôme en París. Gracias a los numerosos viajes que realizó al continente asiático, llegó a ser un distinguido pintor de escenas orientales. En 1895 escribió e ilustró un libro de viajes bajo el título "From the Black Sea through Persia and India" (literalmente, Desde el Mar Negro a través de Persia y la India), y dos años más tarde publicó "Episodes of Mountaineering" (literalmente, Episodios de Montañismo). Murió en noviembre de 1903. Fue miembro de la Legión de Honor de Francia, oficial de la Orden de San Miguel y miembro de la Secesión. Murió en 1903.
