EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the mystical beauty of the Convent of St. Saba, taken on April 4th, 1839. Plate 51 from Volume II of The Holy Land, this engraving by Louis Haghe brings to life the enchanting landscape surrounding the monastery. The image showcases a breathtaking abyss and gorge, with towering cliffs and majestic mountains as its backdrop. The viewer is transported into an orientalist dreamscape where nature's grandeur meets man-made serenity. The Convent of St. Saba stands proudly amidst this chasm of rocks, exuding an aura of tranquility and spirituality. Its ancient walls seem to merge seamlessly with the rugged terrain that surrounds it. Mar Saba, as it is also known, has been a place of pilgrimage for centuries - a sanctuary nestled in nature's embrace. This print perfectly encapsulates its timeless allure. David Roberts masterfully captured this scene during his travels through The Holy Land in the mid-19th century. His lithograph allows us to appreciate every intricate detail and texture present in this mesmerizing composition. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded of our connection to both history and nature – two forces that shape our world in profound ways.
