EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the haunting beauty of the Tomb of Simon the Leper. Taken by a European photographer in the 19th century, this image is now part of a private collection. The tomb stands as an illustration for "The Way of the Cross, A Pictorial Pilgrimage from Bethlehem to Calvary" published in 1895. In this scene, we see the ancient tomb surrounded by an air of mystery and reverence. The weathered tombstones and crypts add to its historical significance, reminding us of the countless stories that lie within these sacred grounds. Located in Bethany, this sepulchre holds great importance in biblical history. It is said to be connected to Jesus Christ's life and serves as a powerful symbol of faith for believers around the world. The monochrome palette enhances both the solemnity and timelessness of this image. It transports us back to a different era, allowing us to glimpse into life in the Middle East during the 19th century. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded not only of its artistic value but also its historical significance. This print offers us a window into a distant past while inviting contemplation on matters that transcend time – faith, spirituality, and our connection with those who came before us.
