EDITORS COMMENTS
Porte De Dagnas A Jerusalem #287, printed c.1870, is a captivating black and white albumen print by the renowned 19th-century photographer, Felix Bonfils. This evocative image showcases the Bab al-Amoud, or Damascus Gate, located in Jerusalem. The gate serves as a magnificent entrance to the Old City, a site of profound historical and religious significance. Bonfils expertly captures the architectural grandeur of the gateway, with its intricate stonework and arches adorned with Arabic inscriptions. The image invites us to imagine the bustling activity that once took place within the gate, as pilgrims and travelers made their way through this historic entrance. The photograph was taken during the 1870s, a time when Jerusalem was a major destination for European pilgrims and travelers. Bonfils' work, and this image in particular, offers a unique window into the past, allowing us to glimpse the rich heritage of this ancient city. Today, Porte De Dagnas A Jerusalem #287 is part of the impressive collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA). The museum's acquisition of this photograph, and others by Bonfils, serves to preserve and share the history and culture of this important site with future generations."
