EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "PDC-S-000275-0018" takes us back in time to the ancient city of Jerusalem. The image showcases the majestic Pool of Bethesda, also known as Piscina Porbatica, with the bustling cityscape serving as a breathtaking backdrop. Captured between 1860 and 1870, this photograph allows us to witness a slice of history dating back to the 1st century BC. The artwork itself dates even further back to the VIII-I century BC, adding an extra layer of historical significance. Located in Israel, this archaeological site is teeming with remnants of aqueducts, excavations, monuments, and complexes that speak volumes about its rich past. The thermal baths and hydraulic structures found here are testaments to advanced engineering techniques prevalent during that era. The composition beautifully captures not only the architectural marvels but also highlights the natural beauty surrounding them. With lush shrubs and vegetation adorning the landscape dotted with ruins, it creates a harmonious blend between man-made wonders and nature's creations. As we gaze upon this panoramic view from afar, our eyes are drawn towards both the grandeur of ancient architecture and glimpses into daily life within these historic walls. This image transports us through time while offering a unique perspective on Jerusalem's evolution over centuries. It is important to note that this caption refers solely to Peter Bergheim's remarkable photographic work from Alinari; any commercial use should not be associated or mentioned here.
