"Gezicht op de Taborberg" (View of Mount Tabor), a photographic albumen print by Félix Bonfils, depicts two views of the historic site of Mount Tabor in Israel. The images, captured sometime before 1878, showcase the landscape's rugged beauty and archaeological significance, highlighting a distant view of the mountain and a close-up of an ancient stone arch. Bonfils, a prominent photographer of the Middle East, documented the region's diverse landscapes and cultures, contributing to a broader understanding of the region in the 19th century. Today, the photograph is part of the Rijksmuseum's collection in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
