"Absalom's Tomb: A Timeless Monument in the Heart of Jerusalem" Step back in time to 1857, as captured by the lens of Francis Frith, and immerse yourself in the enigmatic allure of Absalom's Tomb. Nestled amidst the ancient cityscape of Jerusalem, this architectural marvel has stood for centuries as a testament to history and intrigue. Heinrich von Mayr's 1839 view from the Mount of Olives offers a glimpse into the grandeur that surrounds this sacred site. As you traverse between Mount Scopus and Mount Olivet, an engraving reveals a panoramic vista showcasing Absalom's Tomb against the backdrop of Jerusalem's majestic skyline. Venturing closer, another engraving transports you to Praetorium on Mount Zion where Absalom's Tomb commands attention with its imposing presence. The vivid colors captured in a photograph bring forth an ethereal beauty that is both captivating and haunting. Auguste Salzmann takes us on a journey through time with his 1854 depiction set within the Valley of Kidron. Here lies Absalom’s final resting place – serene yet shrouded in mystery. Louis de Clercq’s lens transports us further into history with his image from 1860 or later, revealing how this tomb has endured generations. John Anthony invites us to explore not only Absalom’s legacy but also those who rest alongside him - Zacharias and St. James - their tombs intertwined like threads woven through time itself. The Vallee de Josaphat beckons our attention through various lenses; its details etched forevermore by photographers such as Auguste Salzmann (1854), capturing every nuance and intricacy carved into stone. Faces West and North stand stoically guarding this hallowed ground since ages past (1854). As we step forward into c1900, we find ourselves standing before The Tomb of Absalom once more – unchanged, yet ever-evolving.
