Jerusalem  30 " X 24" X 2"  Hand embellished print on fine art paper laminated to a wood panel. Framed and ready to hang

"The view of Jerusalem is the history of the world; it is more, it is the history of earth and of heaven." -  Benjamin Disraeli

This painting, "Jerusalem," is a testament to the rich tapestry of history and heritage that shapes this iconic city. Through a fusion of mixed media, I embarked on a journey to capture its enduring spirit.

At the composition's zenith, The Creation of Adam, by Michelangelo is symbolic of connection and continuity. This piece is not just a visual exploration but an invitation to reflect on the profound historical significance of Jerusalem

The image is printed on museum quality archival paper and highlighted with acrylic paint and ink. It is then laminated to a cradled wood panel, varnished, waxed and framed in a black wood floater frame.
