EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, captured by Auguste Salzmann in 1854, showcases the enchanting city of Jerusalem. Titled "Jerusalem, Enceinte du Temple, Face Est de l angle Nord-Est" it offers a glimpse into the archaeological wonders of this ancient site. The image depicts the eastern face of the North-East angle of the Temple Mount's enclosure walls. The intricate battlements and fortifications stand tall against the sky, revealing a rich history that dates back centuries. Salzmann's mastery in capturing architectural details is evident as he highlights every stone and crevice with precision. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported to a time when Jerusalem was at its peak as a holy land destination. The city walls encompassing it create an aura of strength and protection while also symbolizing its significance as a walled town. Salzmann's use of black and white adds depth to this historical scene, emphasizing both the grandeur and solemnity within these ancient structures. It serves as a reminder that even amidst changing times, Jerusalem remains steadfast in preserving its heritage. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art today, this salted paper print allows us to appreciate not only Salzmann's artistic talent but also provides insight into an era long gone. It invites us to explore further into our collective past while marveling at one of humanity's most treasured cities - Zion itself: Jerusalem.
