Description

1787 “A plan of the Valley of Jehoshaphat (II)”
Artist unknown
5 x 7 in., ink on paper
Coppola Collection

Hand drawn in ink, and likely taken from a book, in Italian, this is a plan of the Valley of Jehoshaphat, done in the year 1787 with notations of various places on the map.

Some hold that the Valley of Jehoshaphat (“Yahweh shall judge”) refers to the valley situated between Jerusalem and the Mount of Olives to the east. It was in this valley where king Jehoshaphat is thought to have overthrown the enemies of Israel, the “valley of Beracah”

1. Garden of Getsemani, which is at the base of Mount Oliveto
2. Cedron stream, which flows through the wood of the valley
3. Ponte, which is over the Torente, the place where he fell bound
4. Temple of the Sepulcher of the Virgin Mary
5. Where St. Stephen was stoned to protect the martyr
6. Road that you descend from the door of the city
7. Turkish tombs near the walls
8. Golden gate that is walled up today
9. City Gate said to be of St Stephen
