EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Grotto of the Shepherds" takes us back to the 19th century, capturing a momentous scene from biblical history. The image showcases the renowned grotto in Bethlehem, known as Bet Sahur or En Nasara, where shepherds once gathered on that fateful night. As we delve into this historical masterpiece, we are transported to a time when Jesus Christ's life unfolded in the Middle East. This photograph is an illustration for "The Way of the Cross: A Pictorial Pilgrimage from Bethlehem to Calvary" published by George Newnes in 1895. The ethereal presence of angelic figures adds an otherworldly touch to this already mystical setting. These celestial beings symbolize divine intervention and serve as messengers of hope and guidance. "The Grotto of the Shepherds" not only captures a significant religious site but also offers us a glimpse into centuries-old traditions and beliefs. It reminds us of the power that historical landmarks hold in preserving our collective memory. Through this remarkable piece captured by an anonymous European photographer, we can appreciate both its artistic value and its ability to transport us through time. Let it serve as a reminder that even through photographs, history comes alive before our eyes.
