EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Jerusalem, Porte de la citadelle, 1854" takes us back to the enchanting city of Jerusalem in the 19th century. Created by Auguste Salzmann, a renowned French photographer and archaeologist, this image showcases the grandeur of the city's fortified walls. The photograph captures an imposing gate that serves as the entrance to Jerusalem's citadel. The intricate architecture of the gate stands tall against a backdrop of ancient fortifications. As we gaze upon this scene, we are transported to a time when these walls were not only symbols of protection but also witnesses to centuries of history. Salzmann's mastery in capturing architectural details is evident in this salted paper print. The monochromatic palette adds depth and texture to every stone and crevice within the frame. Through his lens, he brings out both the strength and fragility embodied by these structures. This photograph not only documents an archaeological site but also serves as a testament to Salzmann's dedication towards preserving cultural heritage through his art. It offers us a glimpse into Jerusalem's past while reminding us of its enduring significance as one of humanity's most cherished locations. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this piece invites viewers on a visual journey through time and space – from 19th-century France to ancient Palestine – all within one captivating image captured by Auguste Salzmann.
