The First Photographs of The Holy Land (1867-1879) Jerusalem’s Monuments by Bonfils [Ancient Judea]
Howdy ya’ll. Today we have the first photographs ever taken in The Holy Land. Images dated from circa 1867 through circa 1879. Decades before the establishment of Israel, we have photographer Felix Bonfils traveling through Jerusalem, taking the first photographs of numerous aspects of this magnificent and mysterious landscape.
An abundant and important collection of images, the detail here is outstanding, the architecture formidable and ancient, with many of the foundations in tact, yet seemingly everything here has been buried through centuries of weather events and rewriting of history.
It’s honestly dumbfounding to see Jerusalem before the development which occurred during the mid-20th century. In these first photographs we have ancient monuments abound, and for lack of a better term, they all appear original, not renovated or rebuilt, and the cornucopia of people, animals, running water, and other anomalous details for the age of the images only adds to our questioning of the narrative.
How did photographs this detailed exist back then? Why have they not been shared, dissected, and raised to the forefront by academia? What are these images hiding? I’d love to hear your thoughts and comments down below. Thank you for 95,000 subscribers. Enjoy!
