EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the late 19th century, offering a glimpse into the majestic beauty of The Great Lavra of St. Sabbas the Sanctified, also known as Mar Saba. Perched high on a hillside overlooking the Kidron Valley in the wilderness of Ziph, Palestine, this Greek Orthodox monastery exudes an air of serenity and spirituality. The intricate details captured in this illustration from El Mundo Ilustrado, published in Barcelona circa 1880 by Ken Welsh, transport us to a bygone era. The monastery's imposing architecture stands tall against the rugged landscape, its walls seemingly whispering tales of devotion and dedication. As we gaze upon this image, we can almost imagine ourselves stepping into this sacred space – a haven for monks seeking solace amidst nature's grandeur. The tranquility that emanates from every corner is palpable; one can almost hear echoes of ancient prayers reverberating through its hallowed halls. Mar Saba Monastery holds immense historical significance within the Greek Orthodox tradition. Named after St. Sabbas himself – a revered saint who dedicated his life to asceticism and spiritual enlightenment – it continues to serve as both a place of worship and refuge for those seeking spiritual guidance. Through Ken Welsh's skillful lens or brushstroke (depending on medium), he has immortalized this iconic landmark with utmost reverence and respect. This print serves as a testament to humanity's enduring quest for divine connection amidst breathtaking natural landscapes
