EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of Jerusalem's Hospice, a historic landmark that has stood strong for centuries. Taken by photographer Felix Bonfils between 1870 and 1880, this image showcases the exquisite architecture of the Knights of St. John's Hospice alongside the magnificent Church of the Holy Sepulchre. The photograph transports us back in time to late 19th century Palestine, offering a glimpse into the cityscape of old Jerusalem. The sturdy brick walls and towering dome dominate the frame, while lush green grass surrounds the building, adding a touch of serenity to this bustling urban scene. The Hospice itself served as a hospitaler residence for knights dedicated to caring for pilgrims visiting holy sites in Jerusalem. Its significance is further enhanced by its close proximity to one of Christianity's most sacred places -the Church of the Holy Sepulchre- which can be seen adjacent to it in this remarkable image. As we admire this piece from Granger Art on Demand, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also its historical value. It serves as a reminder that amidst political complexities and conflicts over territories like West Bank, there are enduring symbols like these that unite people through their shared heritage and spirituality.
