- Lot Description
Herrmann Julius Meyer (German-American, 1826-1909). "Omar's Mosque in the City of Jerusalem" - published at 154 William Street, New York, ca. 1850s. Anonymous "Jerusalem, Dome of the Rock" ca. 1850s. Two framed 19th century engravings of famous landmarks in Jerusalem. One is a steel engraving that depicts Omar's Mosque by Herrmann J. Meyer, son of publisher Joseph Meyer, who directed the publishing firm, Bibliographisches Institut, after his father's death. Joining this is a print depicting the famous Dome of the Rock. Size of Dome of Rock image: 8.375" W x 6" H (21.3 cm x 15.2 cm) Size of its frame: 16.375" W x 13.3" H (41.6 cm x 33.8 cm)
Herrmann J. Meyer and his father Joseph Meyer were German publishers of "Meyer's Universum" - an illustrated travel series. Joseph Meyer sent his son to the US where he established a publishing house in New York City. Herrmann then published an American edition of Universum as well as a new series he called "The United States Illustrated" edited by Charles A. Dana, editor of the New York Tribune. When this series did not achieve success, Meyer returned to Germany and took the helm of Bibliographischen Institut when his father passed away. The prints in Meyer's publications are generally finely engraved renderings based on firsthand sketches.
