VINTAGE LANTERN SLIDE: Holy Land  3.25X4IN  HAND TINTED "Maison de la Besae Presta"

The image shows a hand-colored glass slide depicting a landscape described as "Terre Sainte" (Holy Land). The slide, likely dating back to the late 19th or early 20th century, features a rocky terrain with sparse vegetation and a figure walking along a path. Text on the side of the slide indicates it was produced by "Maison de la Besae Presta" in Paris, with a note stating "Reproduction interdite" (reproduction prohibited).
The term "Terre Sainte" generally refers to the region encompassing modern-day Israel and Palestine, considered sacred by Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The landscape depicted in the image is consistent with the topography of this region, characterized by its arid climate and rocky hills. The figure on the path may represent a traveler or local inhabitant, offering a sense of scale and human presence within the vast landscape.
The production details on the slide suggest it was created for educational or entertainment purposes, possibly as part of a lantern slide show, a popular form of visual media before the advent of cinema. The hand-coloring adds a layer of artistic interpretation to the photograph, enhancing the visual appeal and creating a sense of atmosphere.

This item is a guaranteed authentic photo as shown from the original time period.
