1926rif. 144221926. Gröber Karl. Bird's Eye View of Mecca 1926. Original copperplate photogravure depicting Mecca Islam's holiest city and the destination of the annual Hajj pilgrimage. The elevated view records the historic urban setting of Mecca home to the Masjid al-Haram the Sacred or Grand Mosque and the Kaaba toward which Muslims worldwide direct their daily prayers. Published in 1926 the image dates from the early rule of Abdulaziz Ibn Saud over the Hejaz following his conquest of Mecca in 1924 and assumption of the title King of the Hejaz in 1926. The illustration preserves a photographic view of the holy city during a period of political transition decades before the extensive urban redevelopment and mosque expansions of the later twentieth century.

Original copperplate photogravure after a photograph by Gröber published as an illustration in the first edition of a 1926 book containing his text and photogravures. Sheet measures approximately 8.25" x 10.25" with a printed area of approximately 8.5" x 6.25". The elevated perspective presents a panoramic view of Mecca recording the city's buildings and urban topography. The copperplate photogravure process reproduces the tonal gradations and architectural detail of the original photograph. Mecca had been under Ottoman sovereignty until the Arab Revolt of 1916 after which it formed part of the Hashemite Kingdom of the Hejaz before coming under Saudi control in 1924. Gröber's 1926 publication belongs to this transitional period in the city's modern history. The original photogravure provides a contemporary visual record of Mecca before the major architectural alterations and expansions undertaken in subsequent decades. unknown
1926rif. 144231926. Gröber Karl. Two Views of the Mosque at Mecca 1926. Pair of original copperplate photogravures depicting the Masjid al-Haram the Sacred or Grand Mosque in Mecca Islam's holiest city and the destination of the annual Hajj pilgrimage.

Two original copperplate photogravures after photographs by Gröber published in the first edition of a 1926 book containing his text and photographic illustrations. Each sheet measures approximately 8.25" x 10.25" with a printed area of approximately 6.25" x 8.25". The first photogravure presents a ground-level view of the mosque recording its architecture from within the surrounding urban setting. The second provides a bird's-eye view of the mosque showing the sacred complex from an elevated perspective. Both illustrations reproduce the tonal gradations and architectural details of the original photographs through the copperplate photogravure process. The illustrations were published during a decisive period in the modern history of Mecca. Following the collapse of Ottoman authority in the Hejaz during the First World War the city came under Hashemite rule before its capture by Ibn Saud in 1924. In 1926 Ibn Saud assumed the title King of the Hejaz incorporating Mecca into the expanding Saudi state. The paired views record the mosque's architectural setting during this transition preceding the major expansion and redevelopment campaigns undertaken from the mid-twentieth century onward. Both original photogravures are in excellent condition presenting complementary perspectives of the Grand Mosque as reproduced in 1926. unknown

1847rif. 146231847. Mecca is the birthplace of prophet Muhammad and home to the Kaaba the holiest site while Medina is the second holiest city where the Prophet's Mosque is located.Two original steel engravings titled "Medina et Sepulcre du Prophete" and "Temple de la Mecque" issued in Picturesque Universe Paris: Firmin Didot 1847. Engraved plates measuring approximately 5" x 8.2". These mid-nineteenth-century French views present idealized yet intricately rendered representations of Islam's two holiest cities Medina and Mecca produced for a European readership at a moment of expanding Orientalist travel literature and imperial curiosity about the Islamic world. The Medina engraving offers a panoramic prospect from an elevated vantage point depicting the walled city and the Prophet's Mosque at its center approached by four travelers traversing a mountainous road some mounted on camels. The composition emphasizes distance and pilgrimage situating the sacred city within both devotional and geographic imagination. The companion engraving of Mecca presents a detailed architectural rendering of the Masjid al-Haram complex with the Kaaba prominently centered and surrounded by arcades and ancillary structures the broader urban fabric faintly delineated in the background. Produced at a time when non-Muslim access to these cities was extremely restricted such engravings mediated sacred Islamic space through European print culture shaping nineteenth-century visual conceptions of the Hijaz. As products of a major Parisian press renowned for technical excellence these steel engravings reflect both advances in reproductive printmaking and the period's fascination with global religious and cultural monuments.First engraving with loss to the lower right corner not affecting the primary architectural focal points; light age toning and minor edge wear consistent with issue; second engraving clean and well-preserved with strong plate impression. Overall very good. An evocative pair of mid-nineteenth-century European views of Medina and Mecca documenting the circulation of Islamic sacred geography within illustrated travel literature at the height of Orientalism publishing. unknown

1921rif. 148161921. Unpublished sepia-toned photograph of pilgrims journeying to Mecca circa 1921 documents the material and spatial realities of the Hajj in the early twentieth century during a period of geopolitical transition in the Arabian Peninsula following the First World War. The image captures a vast encampment of white tents set against a rugged and mountainous landscape outside Mecca visually conveying the scale of pilgrimage infrastructure prior to modern urban expansion. Created during the years immediately preceding the establishment of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in 1932 the photograph supports research in Islamic religious practice the history of pilgrimage logistics and British imperial observation of the Hejaz during the inter war period. Photograph. Circa 1921. Approximately 3.5 x 5 inches. Sepia-toned silver gelatin print. The composition presents thousands of white tents clustered across uneven terrain forming a temporary city of pilgrims undertaking the religious journey to Mecca. The mountainous backdrop situates the encampment geographically within the arid environment surrounding the holy city. The photograph originates from the album of a British naval officer who traveled in the region between 1920 and 1923 providing contemporaneous visual documentation from a foreign observer during a time of shifting political authority in the Hejaz following the collapse of Ottoman control. The image appears unpublished and retains the intimate scale characteristic of personal travel albums. As a visual record predating large-scale modernization of pilgrimage facilities the photograph preserves evidence of early twentieth-century Hajj organization material culture and environmental conditions. The presence of an extensive tent city underscores both the enduring continuity of Islamic ritual practice and the logistical complexity of pilgrimage prior to the oil-era transformation of the region. Light age-related curling; minor chipping at lower edge not affecting the image area; surface otherwise clean with strong tonal range. Overall good condition. A historically significant early twentieth-century photograph documenting the lived landscape of pilgrimage to Mecca during a pivotal moment in Arabian political history. unknown
