Olivet, a place of historical and religious significance, holds a special place in the heart of Israel. Located in Jerusalem, it is home to the sacred Muslim cemetery and stands as a testament to the rich cultural heritage that permeates this ancient city. The Mount of Olives, captured beautifully in a color lithograph from 1910, showcases its majestic presence overlooking Jerusalem. This vantage point offers breathtaking views of the holy city below, as depicted in an oil on canvas painting from 1902. One notable event that took place on Olivet was "The Visit of the German Emperor to Palestine, " immortalized through a black and white photograph. It serves as a reminder of the diverse range of visitors who have been drawn to this hallowed ground throughout history. An engraving captures "The Ascent of Olivet, " symbolizing both physical and spiritual elevation for those who make their way up its slopes. Nearby lies The Garden of Gethsemane, depicted in another engraving from Olivet's perspective. This garden holds deep significance for Christians worldwide as it is believed to be where Jesus prayed before his crucifixion. In Cyprus, frescoes depict Apostles patiently waiting for Jesus on Olivet's summit in Jerusalem - an image that speaks volumes about faith and devotion. Meanwhile, an unknown artist created an intriguing portrait titled "Olivet" back in 1830; though we may not know much about him or her personally, their work continues to captivate viewers even today. Moving away from artistic representations but still within sight from Olivet lies the Dead Sea - a stark contrast across 40 miles wasteland captured around c1900. This juxtaposition highlights nature's diversity within close proximity. Not limited solely to geographical references or artwork related subjects; Pierre-Joseph Thoulier d'Olivet emerges as one such figure associated with Olivet during the eighteenth century—a French clergyman whose literary contributions left an indelible mark on history.
