About the Item

Title: 19th-Century Chromolithograph of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem – Historical View After David Roberts Description: This exceptional 19th-century chromolithograph offers a detailed and historically significant view of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, a site of profound religious and cultural importance. The print originates from the 1862 publication *De Middelaar God en der Menschen - Tafereelen uit Jezus' Leven en Werk op Aarde* by J.J.L. Ten Kate, published by Gebroeders Kraay in Amsterdam. The composition is based on an original plate by the acclaimed British artist David Roberts (1796–1864), whose iconic depictions of the Holy Land remain among the most sought-after historical representations of biblical landscapes. The scene captures the heart of Jerusalem, focusing on the area traditionally believed to be the location of the ancient Jewish Temple. In the foreground, a group of people, likely religious scholars or local inhabitants, gather on a rooftop terrace, engaged in discussion and contemplation. Beyond them, the architectural splendor of the Dome of the Rock dominates the skyline, its majestic dome and intricate details rendered with exquisite precision. The surrounding buildings, minarets, and ancient walls create a striking contrast between the past and present, illustrating the city's layered history. The distant rolling hills provide depth and a sense of vastness, emphasizing Jerusalem’s significance as a sacred city. The chromolithographic technique used in this print allows for exceptional shading, rich tonal variation, and a painterly quality that enhances the realism and depth of the composition. This piece is particularly appealing to collectors of biblical art, historical city views, and 19th-century lithographic works, offering both artistic beauty and historical significance. Condition: Some foxing and mild age-related toning on the margins; image remains well-preserved with crisp detail and strong contrast. Matting and Framing Tips: A neutral-colored mat, such as ivory or soft beige, will highlight the warm tones of the print, while a dark wood or gold-leaf frame will enhance its historical and artistic appeal.
