Illustrated Jerusalem travel book by the English artist William Bartlett. First edition, 1855
Bartlett W.H., Jerusalem Revisited, London, Arthur Hall Virtue & Co., 1855
The Second Jerusalem travel book of the English engraving artist William Bartlett, first published in 1885m two years after his passing. Bartlett travelled around the world and described his impressions both in painting and in writing. He visited the land of Israel twice, and his drawings well illustrate the scenes and scenery of the country in the 19th century. His visits ensued two books about Jerusalem: Following his first trip in 1824 he published the book ""Walks about the city and environs of Jerusalem". Following his second trip, in 1855, "Jerusalem Revisited" was published, just two years after his passing on his way back from to England. This is the first edition of the book and it includes foldable panorama, 22 engravings and additional wood etchings. 202 pages
