"Jerusalem. Haram El Charife. Prise Du Sud" is a notable daguerreotype created by the French photographer and artist Joseph Philibert Girault de Prangey in 1844. Girault de Prangey is recognized as one of the pioneers of early photography, particularly known for his extensive work documenting architectural and archaeological sites across the Mediterranean and the Middle East. This specific daguerreotype is part of his larger body of work that captures the historical and cultural essence of Jerusalem during the mid-19th century.

The title "Jerusalem. Haram El Charife. Prise Du Sud" translates to "Jerusalem. Haram El-Sharif. View from the South," indicating that the photograph depicts the Haram al-Sharif, also known as the Temple Mount, from a southern vantage point. The Haram al-Sharif is a site of immense religious significance, housing the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock, and is revered in Islam, Judaism, and Christianity.

Girault de Prangey's daguerreotype is distinguished by its meticulous detail and clarity, characteristics typical of the daguerreotype process, which was the first publicly available photographic process. The image provides a rare and invaluable visual record of Jerusalem's architectural and urban landscape during a period when photographic documentation was still in its infancy.

This work is part of Girault de Prangey's extensive collection of over 900 daguerreotypes, which he produced during his travels from 1842 to 1845. His journey took him through Italy, Greece, Egypt, Turkey, Syria, and Palestine, where he meticulously captured images of significant historical and cultural sites. These daguerreotypes are not only artistic achievements but also serve as important historical documents, offering insights into the architectural and social environments of the regions he visited.

Today, Girault de Prangey's daguerreotypes, including "Jerusalem. Haram El Charife. Prise Du Sud," are highly valued by historians, art collectors, and photography enthusiasts. They are preserved in various collections, including those of major museums and private collectors, and continue to be studied for their artistic and historical significance.
