EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Princess of Bengal" painted by Edwin Lord Weeks in 1889. The oil on canvas masterpiece, now housed at the Musee d Art et d Industrie in Roubaix, France, captures a mesmerizing scene from India's rich cultural heritage. In this enchanting artwork, we find ourselves transported to a tranquil courtyard adorned with lush palm trees and exquisite Indian architecture. The princess herself is depicted reclining gracefully, exuding an air of relaxation and elegance. She engages in conversation with her companion, creating an atmosphere of intimacy and connection. Weeks' orientalist approach beautifully portrays the exotic allure of Bengal through his meticulous brushstrokes and attention to detail. The Victorian era influences are evident in the couple's attire and mannerisms, adding a touch of nostalgia to the composition. "The Princess of Bengal" serves as a window into another time and place – it invites us to explore the mystique of Asian culture while celebrating love and human connection. This stunning print is not only aesthetically pleasing but also offers a glimpse into history that transcends borders.
