This photograph, titled 'Water Carrier of Jerusalem, Holy Land,' dates back to the late 19th century, around 1890 to 1900. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the rich history and culture of the Holy Land. The picture is rendered in the photocrom process, a popular method during this era for producing colored prints from black-and-white photographs.

The nostalgic and picturesque nature of this photograph invites us to reflect on the past, as we imagine the sights, sounds, and smells that would have surrounded the water carrier on his daily journey.
