Jerusalem, from the Mount of Olives. Photographer: Frith, Francis
- Scope & Content:
-
Genre: Landscape Photography
View looking across the valley towards the walled city of Jerusalem, with the Dome of the Rock prominent on the left: 'The view is taken from the northern extremity of the Mount of Olives. Immediately in front lies the Valley of Jehoshaphat, and to the left the Garden of Gethsemane. In the depth of the valley is the Brook Kidron, and above its further slope is the east wall of the city. Immediately behind the wall is the Haram, or sacred enclosure, in which are the two chief mosques...Behind the Haram may be seen Mount Zion, which is separated from the supposed Mount Moriah by the Tyropoeon. Here, without the wall, is the mosque called the Tomb of David. Far to the right in the picture is the Citadel; and a little further in the same direction we descry the flattened dome of the so-called Holy Sepulchre...'
