Jerusalem in the 19th Century: Emergence of the New City

Yehoshua Ben Arieh

PALGRAVE~MACMILLAN

<p>A handsome book from in English from two Israeli publishers coordinating with publisher Hemet Books out of New York. Ben-Arieh has written a masterful, readable and well-illustrated book about the many ways that Western artists depicted and understood The Holy Land in the 19th century.\nChapters include coverage of the art of ''The Grand Tour,'' the monumental illustrations of traditionalist Victorians David Roberts and David Wilkie, and the work of landscape artist William Henry Bartlett. Attention is paid to Jewish illustrators, French Orientalists, and to the Pre-Raphaelites. A chapter on Art and Photography considers ethnographic and archaeological drawings. And much more, including depictions that would not have been considered ''fine'' art at the time: albums of illustrations and the illustrations of travel guides.\nCloth over boards, released without dustjacket, over 300 pp and over 3 pounds with many color and black and white illustrations.</p>

Painting the Holy Land in the Nineteenth Century

KTAV Publishing House

First published in 1979.'The Rediscovery of the Holy Land in the Nineteenth Century' tells the story of the exploration of the Holy Land and creates the basis for a further study of the historical geography of Israel in modern times. This is a fascinating chapter in the long history of the country. The Land of the Bible had been terra incognita from a scientific point of view, but by the end of the century, the foundations for the scientific study of the country were firmly laid down. Surveys, maps, traveler's sketches, artists' paintings and engravings brought the people and scenery of the Land to the attention of a a wider public.
