EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by William Henry Bartlett transports us to the breathtaking Valley of Sichem and Nablus in Palestine. The image, taken from "The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire" by Edward Gibbon, showcases a digitally cleaned version that brings out every intricate detail. As we gaze upon this print, our eyes are drawn to the majestic landscape dominated by Mount Gerizim and Mount Ebal. These towering mountains provide a dramatic backdrop for the scene unfolding before us. In the foreground, goatherds and shepherds tend to their flocks amidst an ancient architectural marvel. The architecture in this historic region is awe-inspiring. The buildings stand as testaments to centuries past, reminding us of the rich history that unfolded here. This snapshot captures both the beauty of nature and human ingenuity coexisting harmoniously. In addition to its visual appeal, this engraving offers a glimpse into life in Palestine during Roman times. It serves as a window into an era long gone but not forgotten. With goats grazing peacefully on lush greenery and shepherds going about their daily tasks against such a stunning backdrop, it's easy to understand why this land has been considered holy for centuries. Bridgeman Images has preserved this piece of art with utmost care so that we can appreciate its historical significance today.
