"Jerusalem, 1842" is a significant lithograph by the renowned Scottish artist David Roberts, who is celebrated for his detailed and evocative depictions of the Middle East and North Africa during the 19th century. Roberts, born in 1796, embarked on an extensive journey through the region from 1838 to 1839, meticulously documenting the landscapes, architecture, and daily life he encountered. His works are particularly valued for their historical accuracy and artistic merit, providing a visual record of places that were, at the time, largely unknown to the Western world.

The lithograph "Jerusalem, 1842" is part of Roberts' larger collection titled "The Holy Land, Syria, Idumea, Arabia, Egypt, and Nubia," which was published between 1842 and 1849. This collection comprises over 250 lithographs, based on Roberts' original sketches and paintings, and was produced with the assistance of lithographer Louis Haghe. The collaboration between Roberts and Haghe is often praised for its high quality, with Haghe's lithographic techniques enhancing the depth and detail of Roberts' original works.

"Jerusalem, 1842" captures the ancient city's skyline, featuring prominent landmarks such as the Dome of the Rock, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, and the city walls. Roberts' depiction is notable for its panoramic perspective, which conveys both the grandeur and the intricate details of Jerusalem's architecture. The lithograph not only serves as an artistic achievement but also as a historical document, offering insights into the city's appearance and atmosphere during the mid-19th century.

Roberts' work, including "Jerusalem, 1842," played a crucial role in shaping Western perceptions of the Middle East. His lithographs were widely circulated and admired, influencing both contemporary and later artists, scholars, and travelers. Today, "Jerusalem, 1842" remains a valuable piece for both its artistic qualities and its contribution to the historical record, housed in various collections and often featured in exhibitions dedicated to 19th-century art and Orientalism.
