EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Bethlehem, 1835" by the renowned American artist and engraver, Bartlett, transports us back in time to the Holy Land, specifically to the ancient city of Bethlehem. The scene unfolds on a hillside, with the city walls of Bethlehem looming in the background, their age-old stones bearing silent witness to the passage of centuries. A group of intrepid travelers, dressed in the fashion of the time, make their way towards the city, their faces etched with a mix of anticipation and awe. One of the travelers, seated comfortably on a camel, gazes out at the city with a sense of wonder, while the others walk alongside, their steps echoing the footsteps of countless pilgrims before them. Bethlehem, the birthplace of Jesus Christ, was a significant destination for Christian pilgrims during this period, and this image beautifully captures the essence of the journey. The image also offers a glimpse into the daily life of travelers during the mid-19th century, providing a fascinating window into the past. The intricate details in the image, from the textures of the travelers' clothing to the intricacies of the city walls, are a testament to Bartlett's exceptional skill as an artist and engraver. This timeless image continues to captivate audiences and remains an important historical document, offering a glimpse into the past and the rich cultural heritage of the Holy Land.
