EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Convent of Mar Saba, also known as The Great Lavra of Saint Sabas. Located in the West Bank, east of Bethlehem, this ancient Greek Orthodox monastery stands proudly overlooking the picturesque Kidron Valley. Taken sometime during the mid to late 19th century, this photograph captures the timeless beauty and serenity of Mar Saba. The exterior of the convent exudes a sense of fortitude and grandeur against its natural surroundings. Its architectural details are highlighted by the play of light and shadows in this monochromatic image. Mar Saba holds immense religious significance for both Christians and Palestinians alike. It is a sanctuary sanctified by centuries of devotion to Saint Sabas, or Sabbas, who founded this holy place in dedication to his faith. The landscape surrounding Mar Saba adds an ethereal quality to this historic site. Nestled amidst rugged terrain with rolling hills stretching into the distance, it serves as a testament to human resilience and spiritual devotion. This remarkable print allows us to glimpse into a bygone era when time seemed suspended within these sacred walls. It invites contemplation on our own connection to history, religion, and nature's enduring beauty.
