In the years since visiting the Holy Land and the Holy City several times, two images of this eternal city stand out in my heart. The view from the Mount of Olives which was always the first sight of Jerusalem my tour group had, and the scene in this painting: the “wailing wall.’” The wall consists Herod’s foundation stones of the temple platform, the only part of the first century temple still in place. Behind the wall is the gold ddome of the Al-Aqsa mosque covering Mt. Moriah, later called Mt. Zion.
