A serios
& comprehensive research on the 19th century photography of Jerusalem
as the holy city to the Jews, Moslems and Christians.

 two
volumes:
1) The first photographs of JERUSALEM The
Old City - edited by Ely Schiller
2) The first photographs of JERUSALEM The
New City - edited by Ely Schiller
An effort
to show the early photographs of Jerusalem in those two books: the old
city& the new one. BUT a cheap&low paper quality and printing did
unjustice to such an important subject....
In Hebrew
& English. Ariel Publishing, Jerusalem. Both books are out of
print (1978-1979)
And there
are more ....... (and hope- there will be more)
