The Holy Land I Love - Softcover
When world-renowned artist David Roberts was commissioned to paint scenes of Biblical lands, the 19th Century painter was overjoyed. His rich illustrations, of which this book consists, provide virtually the only visual, early records of the region, including the Buried Sphinx, wild-but-mystical Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Hebron, Petra, and the Jordan River. Roberts' illustrations capture 19th Century life in the Holy Land as it really was.
