Artist Elmendorf Captures Palestine in Lecture at National Theater
Dwight Elmendorf delivered a Palestine lecture at the National Theater yesterday that impressed as much with its artistic photography as with its content. From Joppa to the Saviour's sepulcher, the presentation traced sacred sites and the life of Christ, highlighting the lecturer's skill in selecting angles and enhancing color to reveal the land's beauty. His approach showed Palestine as it was in biblical times, drawing a line from Bethlehem to Bethany and the cross.
