EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Jerusalem, Lepers" takes us back to the 19th century in the Holy Land. Captured by an anonymous European photographer, this image is a powerful testament to the historical significance of Jerusalem. The photograph showcases a group of lepers, their faces etched with pain and suffering. It serves as a poignant reminder of the biblical references to leprosy and its impact on society during that time. Part of the renowned Album de Terre Sainte (Holy Land Album), this image was featured in Maison de la Bonne Presse's publication around 1900. The album aimed to provide readers with glimpses into the lands mentioned in religious texts, offering them a visual journey through history. Through this photograph, we are transported to ancient Jerusalem - a city steeped in spirituality and rich cultural heritage. It allows us to reflect on the struggles faced by those afflicted with leprosy while also highlighting the importance of compassion and understanding towards marginalized communities. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking image, it reminds us that art has always had the power to capture moments frozen in time – moments that can educate, inspire empathy, and deepen our connection with history.
