Auguste Salzmann
Jerusalem
n.d.
Salted paper print
9 1/4 x 13 ins
George Eastman Museum
LL/33154
Salzmann's general views of Jerusalem's ancient monuments rely on picturesque landscape models, favoring asymmetrical compositions that document the massive walls of the city. The soft, pencil-like quality of the salted-paper prints links the city with the site. Blanquart-Evrard published this work as Jerusalem, époques juda´que, romanine, chrétienne, arabe, explorations photographiques par A. Salzmann (1854).
