This striking photograph, taken by Auguste Salzmann in 1854-1859, captures the interior of the Saint Stephen's Gate in Jerusalem. Salzmann, a pioneering photographer, utilized the medium to document architectural details and landscapes. This image showcases the gate's imposing structure, built of weathered stone and adorned with a large, arched entryway. The photograph, held by the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, offers a glimpse into the historic city's architectural heritage.
