EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time from the late 1800s, as a shepherd tends to his flock of sheep outside the ancient walls of Jerusalem. The city, a focal point of religious significance for millions of people around the world, is seen in the background, its walls and gates standing as a testament to the rich history of the region. The sheep graze peacefully, oblivious to the bustling city life just beyond the walls. The shepherd, with his traditional Middle Eastern headdress and long staff, keeps a watchful eye over his charges, ensuring their safety and wellbeing. The image, taken circa 1870, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the daily rhythms of rural life were intertwined with the sacred and the secular in this part of the world. The walls of Jerusalem, a symbol of the city's enduring history and resilience, provide a striking backdrop to this simple yet profound scene. This photograph is a reminder of the timeless connection between people and their animals, and the enduring allure of the Holy Land.
