Framed Jerusalem Artwork
One of the oldest cities in the world and regarded by billions as holy, Jerusalem has been contested for thousands of years. Some of the largest and most powerful empires in the world have tried to control the city, which led to it being destroyed twice and attacked many more times. As a result, many old buildings have been destroyed, but just as many survived and the most relevant ones feature in the Framed Jerusalem Art offered by FramedArt.com.
Framed Jerusalem Art focuses on the landmarks that attract millions of tourists, with adepts of Islam, Christianity and Judaism coming here in large numbers. With the stakes being as high as they are, it comes as no surprise that the city is still highly contested and all the parties involved consider themselves to have the best claim. Today, the old part of the city is a world heritage site and features on the list of endangered ones, therefore in dire need of preservation.
Framed Jerusalem Art emphasizes the continuity of this old city, with the oldest part being founded more than 6000 years ago. Almost 5 centuries ago, walls were built around the city and they are the ones that indicate the area where the old city ends the new one starts. The Dome of the Rock at Temple Mount and the Wailing Wall are some of the most photographed landmarks in Jerusalem and also the most visited by tourists regardless of religion.
