The image appears to be part photograph and part collage. It shows the Mount of Olives, buildings and people.; The photograph/collage is mounted facing a page of wildflowers which are labeled (in French, English and German) as coming from the Tombs of Kings. The album cover is polished wood with a colored inlay. The title is inked on the cover along with the subtitle ("Jerusalem" in Hebrew). The title page contains the title in French, English and German and there is a handwritten dedication from 1904. An earlier page contains a dedication dated 1921. The back cover contains crosses.; The photograph was not catalogued by Lazard--it was catalogued at LKCAJS. Lazard questioned whether the photograph was colored by Photochrom Zurich. The Dumas notation refers to photograph 4487DUM/ABK10CAJS.; Condition: Good; Lazard inserted handwritten notations inside the front cover: "18 photographies colorers PZ? 1 de Dumas nonfiche."
