During the last 2 decades, I have managed  to dig  in the basement of various  antiquariates  throughout Europe, finding numerous most interesting engravings of the  Holy Land. Most of them are from the 19th and a  few from the 18th century . The medium of these works is copper and steel engravings, woodcuts and lithographs, all original . Only a few of them are herewith presented.
