EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to Jerusalem on April 9th, 1839. Taken from Volume I of The Holy Land, this plate captures the essence and grandeur of the city during that time. Engraved by the talented Louis Haghe and published in 1842, it showcases David Roberts' original lithograph. The landscape is a mesmerizing blend of ancient architecture and natural beauty. The walled city stands tall with its minarets piercing the sky, while the iconic Dome of the Rock glistens in all its splendor. This image truly encapsulates the orientalist charm that fascinated artists during this era. Intriguingly, amidst this stunning panorama, we catch a glimpse of Arab locals going about their daily lives. Their presence adds depth and authenticity to this historical snapshot. One notable feature is the Church of the Purification prominently featured in this composition. Its intricate design and rich history make it an integral part of Jerusalem's cultural tapestry. This particular print comes from a private collection known as The Stapleton Collection - a testament to its rarity and value. It has been preserved meticulously over time so that we can appreciate every detail today. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork courtesy of Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder, we are transported not only through space but also through time – immersing ourselves in Jerusalem's vibrant past for just a moment longer before returning to our own reality.
