Auguste Salzmann’s *Jérusalem, Enceinte du Temple, Face Est de l'angle Sud-Est* is a striking 19th-century photograph of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. Salzmann, a pioneer of photography, captured the monumental wall with great detail, highlighting the intricate masonry and the passage of time through weathering and erosion. This photo, taken between 1854-1859, is a testament to Salzmann’s commitment to documenting the historical and architectural significance of Jerusalem, and its lasting legacy as a site of religious and cultural importance.
