Mar Sâba. General view of the Convent and Ravine of the Kidron. Photographer: Bedford, Francis
- Scope & Content:
-
Genre: Landscape Photography
View looking along the ravine, with the monastery perched on the steep hillside on the right overlooking the gorge: 'The ravine itself, forming the dry and rocky bed of the Kidron, in which the convent stands, is as desolate and dreary a spot as could well be conceived, and accords perfectly with the sentiment of an anchorite seeking to retire from the world of humanity...' (p. 56).
