John Frederick Lewis (1804–1876) was an English Orientalist painter. He specialized in Oriental and Mediterranean scenes in detailed watercolour or oils, very often repeating the same composition in a version in each medium. He lived for several years in a traditional mansion in Cairo, and after his return to England in 1851 he specialized in highly detailed works showing both realistic genre scenes of Middle Eastern life and more idealized scenes in upper-class Egyptian interiors with little apparent Western influence.

Orientalismo es un término polisémico que se usa tanto para designar a los estudios orientales, como para describir un modo occidental de inferiorizar a las culturas asiáticas con el fin de dominarlas, o designar a la representación, ya sea la imitación o mistificación de determinados aspectos de las culturas orientales en Occidente por parte de escritores, diseñadores y artistas occidentales, que terminaron por convertirse en tópicos estereotipados.
