Jerusalem

Description

“As the Mountains Are Round, Jerusalem” by Reuven Rubin is a lithograph capturing the serene landscape surrounding the holy city. The artwork depicts rolling hills dotted with trees and fields, set against a light blue sky. Rubin’s subtle use of a soft green palette contrasts with the tan and reddish hues of the hills, drawing the viewer’s gaze towards the city nestled in the center-right. Enclosed by a stone wall, the cityscape features various buildings leading towards the temple and a palace, highlighted by darker blue and green tones. Rubin’s masterful composition employs refined lines and warm colors to accentuate Jerusalem’s significance amidst its tranquil mountainous backdrop.
