The Town and Lake of Tiberius, from the South
1857
Photographed from an elevated southern viewpoint, the biblical Sea of Galilee spreads beneath the town in a composition that emphasizes the region's historical significance. Frith's careful framing connects the New Testament landscape with 19th-century settlement patterns.
